scutigeramorpha bear a single spiracle per body segment, located dorsally. they are the peach-ish color blobs on ~half the spiraclesI agree the coloring is different from any coleoptrata I've seen, but how are you making out the spiracles in those photos?
oops.scutigeramorpha bear a single spiracle per body segment, located dorsally. they are the peach-ish color blobs on ~half the spiracles
The coloration looks closer as well. Even though as Carles pointed out coloration can't be considered a key, I haven't ever seen a coleoptera look anything like that color wise.it appears as if we do ahve more than just S. coleoptera

^ those spiracles look closer to what you took a pic of. and is from TX
Hi PhilSo would S.coleoptrata be an introduced specie to Texas or to Australia or both?!?! Basically, where are they initially from?
