Together, J. cooleyi (Florida), J. pringlei s.str. (Mexico & Guatemala), J. galapagana (Galápagos), and J. saltensis (South America) form a closely related group of species (Kiel et al. 2018) that are each difficult to define morphologically. Based on the perceived lack of unique morphological characters, J. cooleyi was synonymized with J. pringlei (Daniel 2013).
