I have found a very interesting looking centipede. can anyone get a species? About 3 centimetres long. I was thinking it looked like a cormocephalus westwoodi but the legs are redder. Thanks in advance!

It could be cormocephalus nitidus

yeah, It could be! I guess I have to wait until it's larger just in case its colour changes.
