Female (Suez Canal): A, habitus (lateral); B, abdomen and P5 (ventral); C, A1.

Male: D, abdomen (ventral); E, A1.

Nota female:
- Body very slender.

Remarques

For Suarez-Morales & al. (2006, p.104) underline that Isaac (1975) proposed to move this species of Gurney (1927) to Cymbasoma to Monstrillopsis, apparently based on the position of the mouth (no more than 0.25 of the way back along the ventral cephalothorax) and the development of the eyes. However, the presence of only 3 caudal setae in both sexes, combined with the structure of P5 female, the presence of only 1 free postgenital somite in the female and 2 in the male, makes it easy to reinstate this species in Cymbasoma.
