  The 
  closest 
  relative 
  of 
  this 
  species 
  appears 
  to 
  be 
  Callipal- 
  

   lene 
  novo-zealandae 
  (Thomson, 
  1884), 
  which 
  is 
  described 
  as 
  having 
  

   "narrow, 
  slightly 
  curved" 
  chelae. 
  The 
  chelae 
  of 
  C. 
  duhiosa 
  are 
  rather 
  

   robust, 
  with 
  comparatively 
  heavy, 
  straight 
  fingers. 
  The 
  New 
  Zealand 
  

   species 
  is 
  figured 
  with 
  large 
  slender 
  spines 
  on 
  the 
  propodus 
  and 
  an 
  

   investiture 
  of 
  rather 
  long 
  setae, 
  whereas 
  this 
  Japanese 
  form 
  has 
  four
