Diagnosis
Males of C. clavatum resemble those of C.bertmaini in having the epigastric area strongly protruding. In C. clavatum the concave field of clavate setae is clearly longer than that of C.bertmaini, extending over about 2/3 of the sternum, and teardrop shaped; the embolus is less curved than in C.bertmaini.
