Campodea (Campodea) machadoi Condé, 1951d: 7 , figs a–g.

Diagnosis ( Condé 1951d)

Body length 4.5 mm; clothing setae smooth or with small apical barb; antennae with 17 antennomeres; short (ma, la) and long (lp) barbed notal macrosetae, lp macrosetae on metanotum similar to marginal setae; thin pine cone notal marginal setae; 1+1 short ma macrosetae on I–VII urotergites; 1+1 la on V urotergite, 1+1 la, 1+1 lp on VI–VII, 1+1 short ma, 3+3 lp on VIII urotergite and 1+1 mp, 5+5 lp on IX abdominal segment; cerci almost 2½ shorter than body with 11 articles covered in macrosetae with barbs along distal ¾ on proximal articles, and macrosetae with one apical barb on distal articles and a few clothing setae along complete cerci. Sendra & Moreno (2004) described a juvenile female of 2.1 mm from Celorico de Bastos (Braga, Portugal) similar to the original description of C. (C.) machadoi , but with two important differences: the presence of 1+1 ma macrosetae on IX abdominal segment and the absence of the la macrosetae on V urotergite.
