Scolopendra I.d. help

[Daniel Edwards]

Purchased as generic tiger centipede. African import. Id guess?

probably scolopendra polymorpha, also the myriapod section would yield better responses for things centipede related. Where did you purchase it from and for how much? A photo of its head would give better certainty to see if it has what is called a ring furrow, but I’m pretty sure it’s polymorpha.

I bought a "polymorpha" as well... then this "tiger". I don't think the guy was right on it being african since i believe them to be smaller. This was a generic reptile expo. Vendor unknown. I'll get better pics and i'll try the other forum... didn't realize. Thanks for the heads up!

Polymorpha tens to have unique terminal legs also. If you can get a photo of the whole pede that would be best.
