Cephalofovea cameroni is a species of ovoviviparous velvet worm in the family Peripatopsidae.[1] This species has 15 pairs of oncopods (legs) and lives in rotting logs and leaf litter.[2] The type locality is Rydal, New South Wales, Australia.[3] Like all members of the genus Cephalofovea, both sexes of C. cameroni have a furrow on the head, between the antennae, which the male everts to carry his spermatophore to the female.
