Image of Ooperipatellus viridimaculatus (Dendy 1900)
Description:
Peripatus hunting through bryophytes in Silver/Red Beech dominated forest near Lake Rotoroa. On cool, clear night a day after rain. One of the egg laying species & eggs are visible in 1st photo, but I suspect unlikely to be Peripatus eggs.
