Cryptalarella abyssicola (Allman. 1888), Cryptolarella diffusa (Allman, 1888) and Cyptolarella humilis (Allman. 1888). is reviewed after the study of the holotypes of the species. A complete redescription and characterization of the species, including new data concerning morphometry and cnidome is presented. and its literature data reviewed.
