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.

Hiltonius australis (Grinnell)
Spirobolus australis Grinnell, 1908, Univ. Calif. Publ. Paleont., 5: 210, pl. 15, figs. 13, 14. ST (Univ. Calif. Berkeley) from asphalt beds at Rosemary [Rancho La Brea tar pits] (Pleistocene-Recent), Los Angeles Co., California. Hiltonius? australis: Hoffman, 1969, in: Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, Part R, p. R587.
This name is almost certainly a senior synonym of either H. pulchrus or of Tylobolus claremontus, the only large spiroboloids currently known to occur in Los Angeles Co., placement in Hiltonius is therefore somewhat arbitrary pending comparison of material.

A millipede species with up to 750 legs, the most recorded on any animal, has turned up in its tiny native range in California after decades with no sightings, biologists say.
This is a genus of small millipedes found in California. While a few species of centipedes are known to have luminous secretions, these are the only millipedes known to be bioluminescent. What is especially interesting is that these millipedes are blind. Why the luminescence?

ok I am confused caco what is this "aa" you speak of? ::lol::
i don't know how to insert posts into the middle of a thread so i make a big block of posts for me to play with
there was nine aa's in a row at first, right? well eventually most or all will have info there
i think it makes it easier for ppl to use these threads if all the information posts are blocked together _________________
