Diagnosis
(
Condé 1946b
;
Bareth 2006
)
Body length 2.5–3.0 mm; short, smooth clothing setae; antennae with 17–20 antennomeres; long, robust, poorly barbed notal macrosetae; short, thick marginal setae with a few apical barbs; 1+1 short
ma
macrosetae on proximal urotergites and longer
ma
macrosetae in distal ones, on I–IX urotergites, 1+1

, 1+1
lp
on V–VII urotergites, 3+3
lp
on VIII urotergite and 5+5
lp
on IX abdominal segment; cerci with 8–9 articles covered in macrosetae with barbs along distal half and a few clothing setae, latero-interior macrosetae smooth or with 1–3 distal barbs on proximal articles.
Taxonomic notes
Specimens probably belonging to
C. frascajensis
were collected in a cave in La Feuillade (
France
) (Supplementary file 2) showing some noticeable features, some of which can be used to separate this cave population from the
type
species: body size
2.5–4.7 mm
; epicuticle without microdenticles in juveniles, but with tiny microdenticles in adults; sensillum of third antennomere in ventral position; antennae with 28 antennomeres and six olfactory chemoreceptors in cupuliform organ; notal macrosetae with a few thin and tiny barbs.
Habitat and distribution
Soil-dwelling species found at two localities in Niolo, a region in the central northwestern part of
Corsica Island
(
Condé 1946b
). The record of this species from a cave in continental
France
, near La Feuillade, should be clarified.
