Scolopendra dawydoffi

Scolopendra subspinipes cingulatoides Scolopendra dawydoffi is a species of large Scolopendrid centipede found in Southeast Asia, specifically in Laos, Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia.

[2][1][3] It has bright reddish-orange and black colouration (and should thus not be confused with S. hardwickei),[4] and can grow up to and beyond 16 cm in length.

[3][5] Scolopendra dawydoffi has bright reddish-orange colouration, with dark bands on the ends of its tergites.

He said that S. s. cingulatoides "unites the taxonomical characteristics of Scolopendra subspinipes [Leach, 1815] and Scolopendra cingulata [Latreille, 1829]".

[1] S. subspinipes cingulatoides was elevated to species level and renamed S. dawydoffi to avoid confusion with Scolopendra cingulatoides, a junior synonym of Scolopendra cingulata in a 2012 taxonomic review.
