Hi phil,

Thanks.
They are near Ephesos Turkey, as the other "type". Valida is from Tenerife.

Hi,

No, unfortunately my friend caught them to me, when he was on a trip to Turkey!
They are around 10-12cm.

caught my S. subspinipes taking a drink from the side of the enclosure..for whatever reason it is ignoring its water dish.

Here's "Skully" dragging a cricket off to its mortal doom . . . Unfortunately, he's the one who died from nematodes.

Great pictures, I think I am going to start doing some research on these and considering getting some.

Why isn't this thread sticky yet?

Wow! This is a great thread. I love all the pictures. In my gallery on my website I have a centipede man that I drew several years ago. I have a very small neon blue leg at the moment and when I can get a chance I'll try to take a pic of it. But, wow someone needs to get a moderator to make this thread sticky. Anyone PM one and ask yet?

I saw your centipede man. That thing's awesome! And more than a little bit creepy-looking.

 

[Gigas]

I like this pic, the pede is swinging from right to left flips over a roach and stabs right into him, the pic is just before the fangs sunk in

Awesome pic man! I have yet to get a good upclose shot. Its halfway between lack of good camera and lack of nerves .

Awesome pic man! I have yet to get a good upclose shot. Its halfway between lack of good camera and lack of nerves .

Feeding time is the only Time I can safely do cage maintenance and take pictures of this one, Its not that its aggressive its just it likes to bite new surfaces to find out what they're like, If it crawls onto my table, it bites it, onto my bed, bites it, into a new container, searches for an area that it can bite... I'm very cautious around it!
The pic was quite a lucky shot! I'm very surprised its in focus.
