Scutigera coleoptrata
A tiny 1st stage house centipede, only 5 mm long, but as perfectly complete as an adult. The baby has pale orange antennae however. The adults can reach up to 3 cm in length.
Came to the sheet of the ultraviolet light to look for prey. San Cristobal de Las Casas, 2,200 meters.
For an adult of this species see: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/159...
