I have hundreds of great photos, some mine, some from other keepers, and a few I'm waiting on but there are still quite a few I need and others don't even know I need. You could post a thumbnail of your photo in this thread. I have most of the standard species and many life cycle and reproductive images. I did not post a request previously because I'm still not certain what else will come in.
Some needed:
Craterostigmus anything
S.cingulata (not the white form)
Baby Otostigmus rex (I have pics of these somewhere but have not been able to find them).
Close-up shots of lithobius eyes
scut palps from underneath
This is not a want ad since in nearly all cases I am unable to pay for these nor buy and ship copies of the book in exchange since there are very few people that will buy a centipede book (this is not Harry Potter, Hunger Games, or even How to Play Backgammon) and there is simply no budget beyond what I already spent/owe.Why then would you want to offer your best images? The same reason I want to put the book together, because the hobby could use a full-size, full color, hardcover book and to share our love of centipedes and our pets with other hobbyists -much the same as posting photos on the net and yet it would not be so ephemeral. You would keep the rights to your photos though those posted on a permanent website would probably not be used and your name would go directly in the photo description (not hidden in some list somewhere). I realize that some people prefer to post photos on the net for free but would not want to see their work in a printed text, this is only a request for those who may want to help improve the quality of the final text.

but I thought I'd offer.
