Centipede, (kilopoda) or centipede, (chilopoda).

in Indonesia this animal is known by two names at once, as I mentioned above earlier (Centipede, or centipede).
so, in Indonesia itself it is very easy to distinguish Centipede from animals called millipedes.

Centipede is a classy insect of the term poisonous animal. and flat-bodied, segmented like a worm, has many legs, jointed, the front is poisonous, and has two very long antennas. maybe it was used as an enemy detection device or maybe it was used for something else.

while I was taking pictures with some style pose this animal. I keep watching this animal. in fact, I was able to count the legs of this animal. the number of legs owned by this centipede is forty-two (42 feet).

on the left (21) twenty-one feet and on the right there is also (21) twenty-one feet. so if you add up the amount is forty two feet.

its unique! each joint has two legs, one on the left and one on the right. for the length of the body owned by a centipede in this picture is ten centimeters (10cm). and has twenty one joints.

maybe you can pay attention and recalculate every joint or (connection) owned by this centipede. What is meant by joints can be seen at the top of the body shaped like scales. even those scales are almost similar to snake scales, or similar to fish scales.

here I intentionally uploaded lots of images with different look and style poses. so that you all can see clearly from various aspects of the body that it has.

the fact! The number of legs owned by a centipede, it depends on the size that is owned. if her small body does not reach twenty feet. if its size is bigger then its legs can also be more than forty-two feet of one type.

centipede has quite a lot of species or even more than a thousand species in this world.

I just saw centipedes have three different colors and also with the same species. the colors that I've seen are brown, black, and dark blue. I have not seen the color of them other than what I have mentioned.

@anwars, this animal is ridiculous. I am afraid of them.

yes they also have very poisonous clothespins if they pounce. if you meet him hopefully be more careful.
