Stinging Fire Centipede
|
Habitat: |
|
Description: | Nearly three thums long and segmented dozens of times, this centipede's twenty/thirty/forty pairs of legs are sharply pointed and undulate smoothly. The head and tail segments are almost identical to the casual observer, each displaying a glistening pair of crimson orbs and a sharp stiff needle-like appendage. Feathery antennae splay like delicate fern fronds in front and back. The body segments are hard and shiny black chitins mottled with vibrant orange and yellow mottling.
