Etymology: The specific epithet (Latin, adjective: of a/the finger) alludes to the finger-shaped spines in the internal sac of the aedeagus.
Description: Body length 1.4 mm. Habitus as in Fig. 12 View Figs 9–16 . Colouration: body dark-reddish. External characters as in C. spinigerum .
: protibia subapically not curved, weakly excavate in apical portion; aedeagus ( Figs 44–45 View Figs 36–47 ) 0.39 mm long; apex of ventral process of narrowly triangular shape in ventral view; internal sac with several horn- or fingershaped structures of various sizes and shapes; parameres thin, not sinuate, extending to apical third of ventral process.
Comparative notes: Cephennium digitale differs from the similar and geographically close C. spinigerum only by a more slender aedeagus with fewer internal spines of different shapes.
