Opisthopatus amatolensis is a species of velvet worm in the Peripatopsidae family. This species has 16 pairs of legs. The type locality is in South Africa. The validity of this species is uncertain: Although some authorities deem "O. amatolensis" to be invalid even as a subspecies of "O. cinctipes", a similar species also found in South Africa, other authorities recognize "O. amatolensis" as a separate species, citing the significant distance (161 km) between the type localities of these two species.
