This member of the Crassulaceae family was given this name by Hellmut R. Toelken in 1978.

The flowers are bright yellow to greenish yellow.
The genera name is an anagram of Cotyledon; a closely-related genus. The species name from Latin rubrum, meaning 'red', and from the Latin v enosus, meaning 'veined' for the reddish striations on the leaves.
