Planipapillus berti is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species is oviparous, has 15 pairs of legs, and lives in and under logs in dry woodland. It is found in Victoria, Australia.
Planipapillus biacinaces is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species has 15 pairs of legs in both sexes. It is found in Victoria, Australia.
Planipapillus biacinoides is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species is oviparous, has 15 pairs of legs, and lives in and under logs in dry woodland. It is found in Victoria, Australia.
Planipapillus bulgensis is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species has 15 pairs of legs in both sexes. It is found in Victoria, Australia.
Planipapillus gracilis is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species is oviparous, has 15 pairs of legs, and lives in and under dry pieces of timber. It is found in Victoria, Australia.
Planipapillus tectus is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species is oviparous, has 15 pairs of legs, and lives under logs in dry forests. It is found in Victoria, Australia.

Planipapillus mundus is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species has 15 pairs of legs in both sexes. It is found in New South Wales, Australia. Mating in this species occurs via the head-to-tail configuration, in which the male uses its head to inseminate the female's gonopore.
Ooperipatellus spenceri is a species of velvet worm in the family Peripatopsidae. This species has 14 pairs of legs. Although found in Tasmania, Australia, these velvet worms were first assigned to O. insignis, a similar species found in Victoria, Australia, before being named as a separate species. Authorities recognize O. spenceri as a different species, noting the significant distance between the type localities of these two species and their separation by the Bass Strait.
