The deadleaf spider went unknown until 2015 but that's cause it was so good at being a dead leaf. No matter how vast the terrain or how inhospitable someone had to have come across that cow deer, perhaps we should say it was only unknown to registry until 1992. 

The locals knew about it, it just wasn't scientifically documented.

Oh yeah, I just reread your comment and musta missed that part about scientifically documented.
