Burnup's hunter slug (Chlamydephorus burnupi), also known as the camel huntingslug[1] is a species of land slug in the family Chlamydephoridae. It is endemic to South Africa, where it is known from the foothills of central Natal Drakensberg to Port St. Johns.
It is orange to reddish-brown and around 8 cm when extended. It has distinct scalloped keels along the side of its body with a flattened lower dorsal side, in the center of which is the respiratory opening. The body has a hump two-thirds of the way down.[2]
It is found under stones or logs in leaf-litter in mist-belt Podocarpus forest. It is known to prey on pill-millipedes, possibly by introducing a toxin that immobilizes them. Snails and earthworms may also be part of its diet.[3]
In June 2000, the species was listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List, citing fragmented populations and decline of habitat.
