Type species.

Camptoscaphiella fulva Caporiacco, 1934 , by monotypy.

Diagnosis.

Males of this genus are similar to those of Opopaea Simon, 1892 in the extremely large, club-shaped palpal patella, but can be distinguished by the spination of the legs I – II (tibia I and II with four pairs of long spines, and metatarsus I and II with two pairs of long spines) vs. without spination; the cymbium not fused with the bulb vs. fused; and the reduced abdominal scuta vs. complete scuta. Females of this genus are similar to those of Ischnothyreus Simon, 1893 , but can be separated by lacking the distinct, darkly sclerotized, strongly winding duct of endogyne and the uniquely shaped atrium.

Distribution.

China (Xizang, Yunnan), South Asia ( Bhutan, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Sri Lanka), Southeast Asia ( Thailand) and New Caledonia.
