This species is not conspecific with Alsophila crassaKarsten, which is based on material collected from wet, cold, montane forest at Mérida by Franz Engel in 1859. The Checklist of Ferns and Lycophytes of the World considers it to be a synonym of Cyathea clandestina.[3] Because the specific epithetcrassa is unavailable for this tree fern if placed in the genus Alsophila, having already been used by Karsten, David Conant published the replacement nameAlsophila jimeneziana in 1983.[4]
