That's no big deal, I'm 90% sure it's Longipes just wanted to see its side to be sure but I can say the color is defiantly not Subspinipes. He lied I'm sure because he knew those are small pedes, 4" max and are way cheaper then a Subspinipes so if he told you it's a bigger species you were more likely to buy it and pay more too. Basically he lied to rip you off. I love Rhysida though, real handleable pedes, super pretty coloration and they usually can't puncture your skin to inject venom so no risk of bites.

Well as long as you like it that's all that matters! $15 would have been wary cheap for Subspinipes, If you're ever in the market for a way bigger pede for cheap, pm me and I'll get you hooked up with something cool.

I'm sure it is a Rhysida longipes, and can't grow as large as Scolopendra subspinipes.

this is my Rhysida longipes
