GUYS, LOOK AT THIS!!!! That's what i'll be ordering a large group of this spring, MOUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

That is DEFENETLY one of the most beautiful centipede specie that i have ever seen!!!! Does anybody have any nice ID keys on South-East asian species?!?!



It looks like a mix between Sc.Hardwickei and Sc.s.Tiger Legs, i LOVE it!!!!

PS:
yet another Sc.subspinipes island colorvariant perhaps ?

now that you mentioned it,...
there seems something fishy about those bandings :razz:
Hehe, yeah, i didnt have enough paint to finish half of each tergite :p.

With the name of the island known as both Celebes and Sulawesi, i was thinking about giving the specie an easier nickname, a bit like the Tiger Legs or the Halloween centipedes which are fun common names. I was thinking about Fireball centipedes or just Celebes Giant Tiger Centipedes... what do you guys think?

I can't wait to have them in front of me to see if they are actually Sc.subspinipes, and if they are a colorform of either Dehaani or Subspinipes :). This is so exciting!!!!

I think S.s.s ( I think I can see at last 4 spicules in their terminal legs) but you will tell us.

It is a extremly nice centipede!:clap: Untill the day of today I'm continuing surprised by the incredible colorforms of the same pede sp. Every 2-3 months apeears something here that makes me fall in love (even more) of this animals. For me is a lucky(somethimes no), that this animals are so undiscover for the inverts pet hobby. Allways you have surprises here!:)

Cheers
Carles

P.D I can't believe that you didn't paint it.:liar: Steven did it one time an nobody here believe him...:cool:
