Possible "lethal" centipedes are as follows:
S. sp. Riau/and maybe Malaysia variant?
S. spinosissima
S. dehaani/cherry red
S. hainanum
S. sp. Tri color death crawler China
All of these I know can possibly cause bad enough allergic reactions in some people, and coupled with a weakened immune system and the correct bite location, could lead to death. There are a ton of factors that come into play on this sort of thing so no one can say "oh yeah those are deadly" but you can assume under the right circumstances, it is possible some species could lead to a fatality.
