Subfamily Campodeinae Condé, 1956

Campodeinae Condé, 1956a: 94 .

Diagnosis (Condé 1956a)

Epicuticle reticulated apparently smooth in optical microscopy, with microdenticles; presence of roseta formations; body covered with smooth to well-barbed macrosetae and setae; sensillum of third antennomere in dorsal or ventral position; labial pieces typical or slightly rotated in Remycampa ssp.; pronotal macrosetae formula up to 1+1 medial anterior, 1+1 lateral anterior, 1+1 lateral posterior; with or without trochanteral sensilla; with or without one dorsal femoral macrosetae; tibia with up to three short ventral macrosetae, usually only one; subequal simple claws without medial unguiculus except in Eutrichocampa hispanica Silvestri, 1932; claws with lateral crests in the genus Litocampa; one pair of medial anterior and lateral anterior urotergal macrosetae at most and one or two pairs of lateral posterior urotergal macrosetae (exceptionaly three).

Habitat and distribution

Almost 75% of the campodeid species belongs to Campodeinae . The 300 species of Campodeinae are grouped in 28 genera (Condé 1956a; Paclt 1957; Sendra 2015). They are distributed across nearly every terrestrial subsurface habitat, except in the polar regions or those under permafrost influence. Most species of Campodeinae inhabit more-or-less humid soils, but 34 occur in cave habitats, for which they show particular adapations (= troglomorphic traits).
