That centide is Mukade or the Vietmanese centipede. It also lives in Japan & they is around – so thy do pose a danger. Hawaii has them too. THey r poisonous so if bit, go to hospital straightaway.

Thanks for posting this info, Chan. Not much info out there on centipedes in China. I’m originally from Arizona and very familiar with the “Giant Desert Centipedes”. At the moment I’m living in Jiangsu, China and finding a centipede out here was the last thing I was expecting. Judging from your pictures here, it was a Red Headed Centipede crawling across my pant leg. Small, (8cm?) compared to the ones in Arizona. But more than enough to freak me out. Take care!

I saw some of those centipedes when I was in the South Pacific, and I have to say that I hate centipedes. They are so creepy.

I am not fond of people or animals with more than four legs.

Thanks for sharing.
