What is the habitat of centipede?

Answer 1

Giant centipedes live in many rainforests, such as the Amazon. They inhabit many tropical islands, most significantly the US state of Hawaii, and also live in areas of the sonoran desert of Northwestern Mexico and the Southwestern USA.

The largest known living centiped is the Amazonian giant centipede (Scolopendra gigantea), with a 30 cm lenght.

There is a reasonable scientifical consensus that there may exist today even larger centiped species in the Amazon river basin, which is still today poorly explored.

But in the Carboniferous period there were much, much larger centipeds. Arthropleurafossils were fond with 2.6 metres lenght...
