Eoperipatus butleri

Eoperipatus butleri is a Malaysian species of velvet worm in the Peripatidae family.
Taxonomy.
"Eoperipatus butleri" was described by Richard Evans in 1901, from a single female specimen discovered by A. M. Butler in the Larut Hills of West Malaysia. The generic name "Eoperipatus" is derived from an Ancient Greek combining form of "ēṓs", meaning "dawn", and "peripatos", meaning "walking about". The specific name "butleri" is in honour of its discoverer.
