Remarks

epi-mesopelagic, (off Malta: 2000 m). Overall Depth Range in Sargasso Sea: 0-500 m (Deevey & Brooks, 1977, Station "S"). 0-97 m at Station N-1 (SW Bösö, E middlel Japan) from Furuhashi (1966 a).
For Sewell (1947) this species would only be a variety of C. crassiusculus.
For Corral Estrada (1970, p.218), the abdominal segments and furca in the proportional lengths 44-47 : 25-27 : 27-30 = 100.
After Benedetti & al. (2018, p.1, Fig.2) this species belonging to the functional group 2 corresponding to small ambush feeding carnivorous.
For Boxshall & Halsey (2004, p.491) the subgenus (Dahl, 1912) is considered as full generic status pending phylogenetic revision of the whole family at the generic level.
