Etymology: Cryptopsaras: Greek, kryptos =secret, hidden + Greek, psaras = fisherman (referring to this genus' tiny illicial bone, almost entirely covered by tissue of the esca) (Ref. 86949); couesii: Named for the eminent ornithologist Elliot Coues (Ref. 4525).
Eponymy: Dr Elliott Ladd Coues (pronounced ‘cows’) (1842–1899) was a US Army Surgeon who graduated from Columbia University (1861) then being appointed Assistant-Surgeon in the army (1864). [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Descrição breve
Chaves de identificação | Morfologia | Morfometria
Espinhos dorsais (total) : 1; Raios dorsais moles (total) : 4 - 5; Espinhos anais: 0; Raios anais moles: 4; Vértebras: 20. A large median and two small lateral oval caruncles immediately in front of origin of dorsal fin (Ref. 13608). Branchiostegal rays: 6 (Ref. 36494).
Males dwarfed, becoming parasitic on females. Maximum size of free-living males is 1.05 cm (Ref. 4494). Females are oviparous, with planktonic larvae (Ref. 36494). Eggs are presumably contained in floating gelatinous rafts (Ref. 36494 ).
Females are oviparous, males are parasitic (Ref. 36494).
