Ethmostigmus Trigonopodus (African Tiger Centipede) come in variousdifferent morphs depending on Locality.

It could be from a number of African countries, quite likely Cameroon or Niger as that's where most recent exports come from. I currently have 3 types of Ethmostigmus trigonopodus including a clutch of "Niger Orange Leg" who are a mix of orange and yellow legged individuals. The mother was WC, so no artificial mixing, which goes to show there is even variation within same clutches.
