Scolopendra sp. “Haitian Giant Centipede”, WC, 3”-7”, Awesome! Rare import from Haiti. This import proves that the centipedes from Hawaii, Solomond Islands and now Haiti are a cosmotropical species that has an extensive range on the tropical islands of the world. It probably has been established by hitching rides on cargo ships accidently. Mahogany brown body when kept humid, but changes to yellowish-green with black banding, legs are pale orange with greenish-blue tipping - incredible color! They are probably in the Scolopendra subspinipes “complex” as a sub-species or a geographical color variant. Being a rare import from Haiti, these are more expensive than the Solomon Island or Hawaiian variants. Maybe these Haitian ones achieve larger lengths than the ones from Hawaii or the Solomon Islands. See my ad in the classifieds for ordering.
