Thank you bayucca.

Thank you bayucca, could you identified the centipede I posted. I am dying to find out what it is?

There are about 20 species in Costa Rica and some look very similar. I think it is not serious to get down to species without the native specimen. And I have my doubts if all Zopherus on the web are correctly identified.

Alajuela, Costa Rica
