Not sure, but I suppose gigantea might be heavier dosage due to the sheer size... I don't think either have terribly bad venom compared to Asian 'pedes. Never actually been bitten by either so I really don't know.

I have heard gigantea and galapagoensis are not very potent compared to other large pedes and even Scolopendra heros puts them to shame. Not saying it wouldn't hurt but, it would not be as bad as other giant species and wouldn't even be close to true subspinipes or spinosissima which supposedly have the worst bites in the centipede world. I know nearly nothing about angulata so I can't comment there.
