Scolopendra dehaani Brandt, 1840 (stat. nov.)
Distribution. India, Burma, Bangladesh, Malay Peninsula, Andaman Islands, Nicobar Islands, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Thailand, Vietnam, Japan, Okinawa, Cambodia.
Scolopendra subspinipes dehaani , which is the largest subspecies (over 22 cm body length), is clearly separable from all other taxa of the Scolopendra subspinipes group by the absence of ventral spines at the prefemur of the terminal legs (see Fig. 3 View Fig ). As this character is stable, S. dehaani is revalidated at species level.
