Description

These stunning centipedes are found in northern NSW, coastal Queensland and the NT. Some forms from near Cairns, FNQ are hot pink in the body with vibrant blue legs. This from from northern Nsw is more of a purple-magenta colour on the body with blue legs.

Rhysida nuda are one of, if not the fastest centipedes in Australia partly due to their flighty temperament and long legs.

Rhysida nuda grow to about 90mm in length.

All centipedes require moist coco peat as substrate and need only be fed once every week or two.

This individual is missing a terminal leg. this will grow back after a few moults as it is a juvenile.
