 Etymology. The species is named rufus from the Latin rufus, meaning red, in reference to the red chromatophores covering the entire body, such that the specimens appear red.   
 Remarks. The most similar species are Campylaspis apheles and Campylaspenis tangaroae. In Campylaspis apheles there are very few to no chromatophores on the body, and the species is smaller than C. rufus. Females of C. tangaroae have a sulcus on the carapace and only 2 setae medially on the uropod endopod, while females of C. rufus have no sulcus on the carapace and at least 7 setae medially on the uropod endopod. Males of C. tangaroae have a pair of large penial lobes ventrally on pereonite 5 and the carapace has a distinct sulcus, while males of C. rufus have no penial lobes and no sulcus.
