Abstract
The genus Camptocercus is revised. Camptocercus streletskayae sp. n. is described from East Siberia. The status of other species is discussed on the basis of a standard set of morphological features, including the structure of the cephalic region, the post-abdomen and post-abdominal claw, the dorsal keel, denticles at the ventro-posterior angle of valve, and setae on the inner distal lobe of limb I. Geographical distribution of species of this genus is discussed. A key to the species of this genus is composed.
