Hi, I have not visited here in a long while.. but here is something interesting.
Many centipedes glow under UV light to some degree, especially legs/terminal legs and often antennae. Although not to such a degree as scorpions, of course. But embryos do flouresce strongly and it seems now that this is only during early stages. I did not know of the 'honeycomb' detail on the outer layer until these photos
Please let me know if this topic has been discussed before as I am interested to learn more.. and to know if someone has noticed this before (I hope)
