EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, renowned Entomologist Stuart Hine stands proudly next to a breathtakingly large and venomous Scolopendra gigantea, also known as the Amazonian giant centipede or the Peruvian giant yellowleg centipede. The image, captured in the hallowed halls of the Natural History Museum's Insect Identification service, tells a tale of discovery and fascination with the natural world. Stuart Hine, an expert in the study of arthropods, particularly those belonging to the class Myriapoda and the subclass Chilopoda, is seen here in a studio setting, surrounded by the trappings of scientific exploration. His keen eyes are fixed on the centipede, a creature that can grow up to 32 centimeters (12.6 inches) long, with powerful legs and a menacing appearance. The centipede, in turn, seems to gaze back at the entomologist with an air of curiosity and defiance. The giant centipede, a member of the Scolopendridae family and the suborder Scolopendromorpha, is an invertebrate belonging to the phylum Arthropoda and the class Insecta. It is not an insect, however, but rather an arthropod, as it possesses multiple pairs of legs and a segmented body. Its hexapod status is derived from having six legs, a characteristic shared with insects. Despite its intimidating appearance, the giant centipede is an essential part of the ecosystems it inhabits. It plays a crucial role in controlling pests and maintaining the balance of the food chain. Its venom, while potent, is primarily used for subduing its prey, which consists mainly of other invertebrates and small vertebrates. This photograph serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving and studying the natural world, as well as the awe-inspiring discoveries that can be made through scientific exploration. Stuart Hine's dedication to the field of entomology, and his encounter with this magnificent creature, encapsulates the spirit of curiosity and wonder that drives scientific inquiry.
