Scutigera coleopterata
Found this fellow darting around our big porcelain kitchen sink (probably feeding on the small ants that I noticed yesterday). What a useful creature in the house. (scary for some) I moved him onto my veranda. The smaller / less legs - end has the head. This can run at 0.4 mtrs per second. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scutigera_c...
Houses, sheds, gardens.
These originated in the mediteranian area but can be found worldwide.
