The C. longipes field should be used to record stations where the ceuthophilus longipes (pronounced lonjipees) species of cave camel cricket is observed. The primary distinguishing feature of c. longipes is long antennae and long legs. It is a small cricket whose color can range from translucent to brown. The size can vary from quite small (usually adolescent) to medium sized but (unless injured) will almost always have exceptionally long antennae. They are usually slow moving and can be seen on the walls, floor or breakdown. Observe closely and carefully to see them as they can sometimes be found in small cracks or vugs.
