Remarks.
Ancey writes that this species may only be compared to Naesiotus calvus (Sowerby, 1833), which was described from Isla San Salvador. However, Parent and Crispi (2006) found Naesiotus amastroides on Isla San Cristobal and suggested that its closest relative is Naesiotus snodgrassi (Dall, 1900).
