Non-protruding frontal process with non-tubercular setae. Mesonotum with 1+1 medial anterior, 3+3 lateral anterior and 2+2 lateral posterior macrosetae; metanotum with 1+1 medial anterior, 2+2 lateral anterior and 2+2 lateral posterior macrosetae. With or without medial posterior notal macrosetae. One dorsal femoral macroseta. Two to three ventral tibial macrosetae. Subequal elbow-like claws, posterior claw equal (1.0) to subequal (1.1) to anterior claw. Laminar pretarsal lateral processes with long, rigid, ventral hook-tipped barbs. Urotergites I–II with 1+1–2+2 posterior macrosetae; urotergite III with 2+2– 4+4 posterior macrosetae; urotergites VI–VII with 3+3 lateral anterior and 5+5 posterior macrosetae. Urosternite I with 7+7 (15+ 15 in C. iberica Sendra & Condé, 2012), urosternites II–VII with 5+5, urosternite VIII with 2+2 macrosetae. Males without g 1 glandular setae but with a 2 glandular setae on first urosternite appendages. Females with subcylindrical appendages with a 1 glandular setae.

Habitat and distribution

Two of the four species of Cestocampa occupy the subterranean habitat in caves from the south of the Italian Peninsula ( C. gasparoi Bareth, 1988) and the east of the Iberian Peninsula ( C. iberica). The other two are soil-dwelling species ( C. italica (Silvestri, 1912) and C. balcanica Condé, 1986) that have been reported from the Italian Peninsula and Dinaric Mountains (Fig. 210).
