@theeternal:

If you really will do a research project, you should know, that the genus Trachycormocephalus isn`t existing any more but synomized to Scolopendra some years ago....

I have not made the leap... Midwest house centipedes make this 220lb 36 year old man turn into a 3rd grade girl!

Now Scolopendra pedes have been catching my curiousity.



Not sure if I'm ready for the leap... But I have over 100T's in my collection. my only issue... I don't get bored with Tarantulas, but I had a couple scorpions and was bored to tears! Wondering if pedes will be the same.

I'm loving my scorp! Honestly Sr.Pinch has been more entertaining than my T's lately, but I think he's just a particularly hateful P.cavimanus.
Hey, if you get a centipede, and don't like it, you can send it to me!
(Actually don't. Wife said "no centipedes until we have a house/apartment big enough where I don't have to be in the same room as them.")

I had a couple of emperor scorps and they burrow and dissappear. I watched a centipede molting video in timelapse and it was absolutely unreal. :)



I am trying to search for something for newbie pede owners and there just isn't much. I see lots of New Pede threads, but nothing really has much for substance. I'll dig some more tonight.

Looking for S. heros ssp :p
Click to expand...
I'm not pretend to be "the finger that allways point", but S. heros is considered now a sp. without ssp.
What we say, castaneiceps, heros heros or heros arizonensis are just colour varietys of the S. heros.

Anything more.

Cheers

Have a good Xmas

Hi thats very interesting. Where did you get that information? Was it just word of mouth or was it in a scientific study?

Thx,
Clint
