Type
species.
Camptoscaphiella fulva
Caporiacco, 1934
, by monotypy.
Diagnosis.
Males of this genus are similar to those of
Opopaea
Simon,
1892 in
the extremely large, club-shaped palpal patella, but can be distinguished by the spination of the legs I – II (tibia I and II with four pairs of long spines, and metatarsus I and II with two pairs of long spines) vs. without spination; the cymbium not fused with the bulb vs. fused; and the reduced abdominal scuta vs. complete scuta. Females of this genus are similar to those of
Ischnothyreus
Simon, 1893
, but can be separated by lacking the distinct, darkly sclerotized, strongly winding duct of endogyne and the uniquely shaped atrium.
