Rem.:

For Suarez-Alvarez & al. (2013, p.635) the Cahuita’s female is easily assigned to the genus Cymbasoma by its possession of 3 caudal setae and the presence of 3 urosomites (5th pedigerous, genital double-somite and anal somite). Most of the known species of Cymbasoma have P5 bearing an inner lobe, developed in different degrees ; two main groups with this charcter have been defined within the genus, one related to Cymbasioma longispinosum (Bourne, 1890) and the other to Cymbasoma rigidum thompson, 1888. Only a reduced group of species have P5 with a single lobe armed with 3 setae. The first group, related to C. longispinosum, shares a relatively long cephalothorax (representing more than 55% of the total body length), a biramous P5 with a relatively reduced inner lobe, an outer lobe with 3 setae, and a well-developed genital double-somite.
The new species appears to be most closely related to C. germanicum (redescibed by Suarez-Morales, 2006) from Helgoland, and to C. davisi from Florida (Suarez-Morames & Pilz, 2008). The general body proportions and the characters of the antennular armature, the genital double-somite and P5 are almost identical in the three species. They also share a distinctive lateral process on the distal margin of the genital double-somite, a field of dorsal cuticular ridges on the same somite, and basally separated ovigerous spines. There are several differences between these species : in C. alvaroi the relative length of the cephalothorax is 61% of the total body length, whereas both C. germanicum and C. davisi have a relatively shorter cephalothorax (57%). The position of the oral papilla is different in these species : 26.8% of the way back along cephalothorax in C. alvaroi versus 23% in C. davisi and C. germanicum. The anal somite has ridged margins in C. davisi an dit is smooth in C. alvaroi and C. gemanicum. C. alvaroi has a rounded process on the forehead area between the antennule bases, a character absent in both C. gemanicum and C. davisi.
