Australian centipedes

[Dabugboi]

Half-banded centipede (Scolopendra morsitans), this colour form is from near Darwin, Northern Territory Australia and features the typical Australian morsitans colour pattern on half of the body, but the other half of the body lacks bands and is a beautiful red colour
I think I'm gonna start posting a lot of my Australian species on here, people overseas seem very keen to see what we have in australia.

The most common and widespread centipede in southern Australia, Cormocephalus aurantiipes. This one is from Perth, Western Australia and features blue and orange legs, but those from other states have entirely orange legs

matter of opinion i know every time i see RezonantVoid post pics of the stuff he keeps thats available locally even i am filled with envy. wishing i could keep some of those to knowing with your export laws etc. that will never happen and thats not even counting the tropical fish you guys have or the parrots cockatoos and the like you get to see just in your own back yards even.
