Key to Species Groups of Campsicnemus View in CoL in French Polynesia

(based on males)

1. Fore coxa with a cluster of three to 4 black setae subapically on anterior surface (directed forward) that appear to be fused together to form a thorn-like projection ( Fig. 2 View FIGURE 2 ); mid basitarsus shortened and with an apical spur of varying shapes or strong apical seta ( Figs. 3–6 View FIGURES 3 – 6 ) ... (Marquesas). ...................................................................... gladiator View in CoL group

-. Fore coxa without a modified cluster of setae; mid basitarsus not as above................................................................ 3

2. Mid femur with conspicuous ventral swellings and concavities with associated patches of strong setae (e.g., Figs. 14–16 View FIGURES 14 – 16 ) ................................................................................................................................................... englundi View in CoL group

-. Mid femur normal in shape and without setae in patches as above.............................................................................. 2

3. Fore tibia with conspicuous hook-like or pad-like sclerotized protuberance apically ( Figs. 23–27 View FIGURES 23 – 27 )...(Marquesas) ...... ..........................................................................................................................................................................aa group

-. Fore tibia without such a protuberance apically (not to be confused with an apical tibial comb, which is not a sclero- tized structure of the tibia) ............................................................................................................................................ 4

4. Mid basitarsus with conspicuously long, thick setae ( Figs. 17–20 View FIGURES 17 – 20 )... (Marquesas) ................................. hihiroa View in CoL group
