Taxonomic remark Crandall et al 2002 state: "The form identified and figured by Iwata (1954) as Amphiporus bimaculatus Coe, 1901, appears identical with one found later in Alaska by Norenburg and sectioned and studied by Crandall. Although having a superficial resemblance to Coe=s species, this form, which has a pair of quadrantic head markings rather than the long triangular markings of Coe=s taxon and a quite different proboscis central armature, is not a cratenemertid, has not been definitively described, and at present, is regarded as having uncertain affinities."

Chernyshev 2020 states: "Our preliminary studies showed that “Amphiporus” bimaculatus Coe, 1905 from the American coast and C. bimaculata sensu Chernyshev, 1993 from Peter the Great Bay are two genetically similar species, and the latter needs a new name. C. bimaculata sensu Chernyshev, 1993 lives in the southern Kuril Islands, as well as in the Sea of Japan."
