Diagnosis

Based in part on Seiter et al. (2018), this species may be separated from other Caribbean and Central American Charinus by means of the following combination of characters: median eyes absent and lateral eyes reduced; cheliceral claw with 2–4 teeth; female gonopods cushion-like with lateral projections directed posteriorly and unsclerotized; tibia of leg I with 21 or 22 articles, tarsus I with 37 or 38 articles; first tarsal article about five times as long as second article; pedipalp femur with three dorsal spines and two ventral spines; pedipalp patella with three dorsal spines and two ventral spines; leg IV basitibia with three pseudo-articles; leg IV distitibia with 16 trichobothria; trichobothrium bc situated closer to bf than to sbf.
