After Suarez-Morales & Escamilla (2001, p1437) this species was originally assigned to the invalid (Grygier, 1994) genus Thaumaleus. Several features were not reported in the original description: the oral papilla was indicated by Suarez-Morales (1994) to be 0.28 of length posteriorly along the ventral surface of cephalothorax, while the correct figure is in fact 0.14 in both groups of specimens; Suarez-Morale (1994) described 2 low cephalic protuberances, one ventral between the oral papilla and the antennule bases, and the other on the dorsal surface of the head; the former was probably a misinterpretation of striations like those found in the same position in the Chelem specimen; the latter dorsal protuberance was not found in the Chelem specimen; the shape of the pigment cups in dorsal view is different in the specimens from the two localities (subtriangular in Bahia de la Ascension, rounded in Laguna de Chelem. The anal somite was depicted (in 1994) as being a large, partially divided somite; however , the anal somite is in fact short, and it is the genital somite that has a constriction and a dorsal band of striations suggesting a partial intersegmental division near the base of the ovigerous spines The antennular armature, in the work of 2001 is analysed for the first time according to the nomenclature of mostrilloid setation pattern proposed by Grygier & Ohtsuka (1995); neither the dichotomous branching of the three subterminal setae (b1-3 (in fig.3E), nor several elements of the armature of the distal antennular segments were mentioned in the previous description. There are differences between the type specimens and those recorded in the Laguna de Chelem. Most of them are related to the incomplete original description; therefore, these differences should be considrerd only as an extended morphological range for C. quintanarooense. Following the recently published key for the known males of Cymbasoma (Suarez-M0rales, 2000), the specimens from Banco Chinchorro do not correspond to C. quintanarooense, because of the non-bifid condition of the forehead shown by the Chinchorro specimens; there are some other differences between the Mahahual (Suarez-Morales, 2000) and the Chinchorro specimens: the relative lengths of the A1 (0.85 % vs. 76 % of the cephalothorax, respectively) and of the antennular segments; the anal somite of the Mahahual specimens show a serrated posterior margin, whereas it is nearly smooth in the Chinchorro material; the genital lappets are serrated along both sides in the Mahahual material but only on the outer margin in the Chinchorro specimens. Nevertheless, the structure of the genital complex still includes the most relevant characteristics for identification of the members of the genus. The most distinctive characters for this species, besides the lappets, are: the protuberance on the base of the genital lappets and the ventral process on the postgenital somite (see Suarez-Morales, 2003, figs.33, 24, and in Suarez-Morales, 2000, fig.6).
After Suarez-Morales (2017, p.1811) the male and female of C. quintanarooense were linked as being conspecific based on the saveral morphologic characters they share (see similar set of characters used to match the male and female of C. pseudibidentatum).
