Cretoperipatus burmiticus
''Cretoperipatus burmiticus'' is an extinct species of velvet worm that is known from Cretaceous amber approximately 100 million years old. Found in Kachin state, Myanmar, the species can already be assigned to one of the modern families, the Peripatidae.
While only five leg pairs can be discerned, the information gained from the fossil is enough to preclude assignment to any known modern genus.
''Cretoperipatus burmiticus'' is important in closing a gap between the only other known fossil onychophores, ''Helenodora inopinata'' from the Carboniferous and ''Succinipatopsis balticus'' plus ''Tertiapatus dominicanus'' from the Eocene and Miocene, respectively.
