[4] An exceptional size is reached in Hanseniella magna, which attains lengths of 12-13 mm (0.5 in). [11]

Young centipedes have four pairs of legs when they are hatched. They gain a new pair with the first molting , and two pairs with each of their five subsequent moltings. Adults with 15 pairs of legs retain that number through three more molting stages (sequence 4-5-7-9-11-13-15-15-15-15 pairs).
Thus, centipedes are most commonly found in high-humidity environments to avoid dehydration, [38] and are mostly nocturnal. [39] Centipedes live in many different habitats including in soil and leaf litter; they are found in environments as varied as tropical rain forests, [25] deserts, [40] and caves. [41]
