Diagnosis: Recognized by the uniformly dirty orange coloration (Figs. 33–35); comparatively large size, 2.9– 3.2; darkened antennal segment I and base of segment II in both sexes (Figs. 10, 11), a series of conspicuous round spots on ventral surfaces of all femora, vestiture composed of dense adpressed black simple setae intermixed with moderately flattened scales, and the shape of two apical blades of vesica (Figs. 24, 28, 29). Easily separated from all other Western Palearctic Campylomma spp. by the distinctive coloration. Somewhat similar to C. oertzenii in the shape of subapically widened vesica, (Fig. 22), although relative length of apical blades in these species is different. C. oertzenii further differs from C. ochraceum in the pale olive brown coloration of dorsum and entirely dark brown antennal segment II in both sexes.
Redescription. Male: COLORATION: Ground color of dorsum and venter dirty orange, head, thorax, abdomen, and hemelytron without dark color-pattern; antennal segment I black, with pale base and apex (Figs. 10, 33–35); segment II dirty orange to pale brown, with narrowly darkened base; remaining segments pale brown; labium dirty orange with dark brown segment IV; membrane uniformly smoky pale brown, with dirty orange veins; all femora with large subapical bean-shaped or round black spot on anterior margin composed of two confluent spots at bases of subapical spines and with two rows of black round spots along posterior margin; tibiae with large and distinct black spots at bases of tibial spines; thoracic pleura usually slightly darkened, dirty yellow to brown; abdomen somewhat darker than dorsum, dirty yellow to brown, genital segment always darker than pregenital segments. SURFACE AND VESTITURE: Body very finely rugose, shining, dorsum with dense, comparatively short adpressed black simple setae and scarce moderately flattened silvery scales; venter and appendages with pale simple setae; antennal segment I with two black mesial setae; subapical spines on femora conspicuous, black; tibial spines black; dorsal surface of hind femur with a short row of spicules subapically (Fig. 50). STRUCTURE: Body elongate, total length 2.9–3.2, body 2.7–3.0 × as long as basal width of pronotum. Head: Strongly flattened anteroposteriorly, clypeus not visible from above, eye occupying entire lateral side of head, postocular region of head not developed, vertex 1.5–1.7 × as wide as dorsal width one eye; posterior margin of vertex finely carinate and distinctly flattened, smoothly curving between inner angles of eyes and tightly adjoining to anterior margin of pronotum; antennal segment I short, segment II 0.6–0.8 × as long as basal width of pronotum, 1.0–1.1 × as long as width of head, cylindrical, somewhat incrassate, slightly thinner than segment I, segments III and IV filiform; labium reaching or surpassing middle coxa. Thorax: Pronotum 2.1–2.2 × as wide as long, 1.4–1.6 × as wide as head, with distinctly rounded anterior angles and weakly convex lateral margins; scent gland of evaporatory area broadly triangular, with large, oval peritreme (as in C. diversicorne, Fig. 42); hind femur swollen; second and third tarsal segments subequal in length; claw rather sharply bent at middle, pulvillus wide, reaching midpoint of claw, parempodium somewhat spatulate apically (Figs. 52, 53). Abdomen: surpassing apex of cuneus but not reaching apex of membrane. GENITALIA: Genital segment about 0.4 × length of abdomen, without distinct ornamentation, slightly longer than wide; right paramere as in Fig. 31, broadly oval; left paramere as in Fig. 32, of typical phyline shape, with comparatively long, slightly and gradually curved apical process and broadly triangular sensory lobe; apex of phallotheca as in Fig. 30; vesica S-shaped, gradually curved, apically with two small hook-shaped blades separated from body of vesica with membranous area; secondary gonopore located pre-apically (Figs 24, 28, 29).
Female. COLORATION, SURFACE AND VESTITURE: As in male; thoracic pleura and abdomen brighter than in male, of same color with dorsum. STRUCTURE: Very similar to male in all respects, insignificantly more ovoid, total length 3.0–3.2, body 2.7–2.8 × as long as basal width of pronotum. Head: vertex wider than in male (Fig. 11), 1.9–2.1 × as wide as dorsal width one eye; antennal segment II 0.6 × as long as basal width of pronotum, equal in length to width of head, distinctly thinner than segment I, slightly incrassate at extreme apex. Thorax: Pronotum 2.1–2.3 × as wide as long, 1.5–1.6 × as wide as head.
Distribution. The species is known from Spain, southern France, Corsica, and Sicily (Wagner 1975; Carapezza 1988; Coffin & Moulet 1989).
Hosts. Populus sp., Salix sp. (Salicaceae) (Wagner 1975).
