Has anyone ever found the offsprings of S. heros castaneiceps and S. heros arizonensis? What I mean is that the two different subspecies/morph breed with each other. Or bottom text I just want to see pictures of different “hybrids” of scolopendra heros.

I've yet to even see evidence that this is possible.
It actually is, I’ve seen it, just not specifically the offsprings of castaneiceps and arizonensis

They are taxonomically the same species, and can breed with each other as a result. Red head and Sonoran varieties don’t really overlap in the wild, although banded, blotched, and black tailed varieties do. There is documentation of captive specimens being able to reproduce.

I'm doing arizonensis x castaniceps as we speak, got a male castaniceps with a female arizonensis and it's looking good. I'll make a thread and keep everyone updated as things progress.
