There may be people who like centipedes. I have seen people handling tarantulas and scorpions, but never a centipede handler. I would regard such a person with deep suspicion...Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on its underbelly "And here is my big good centipede." If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.

Only two of the six species of Nearctic Pselliopus have tubercles on their pronotal lobes. Of those two, Pselliopus latifasciata is a more eastern species and is only recorded as far west as Colorado. Pselliopus spinicollis is known from British Columbia south to California. The speckles, in addition to the rings, on the femora are supposedly indicative as well.
