They will always look like some unnatural combination between a cricket and scolopendramorpha to me. When I was young and first saw a young one I was convinced that it was some sort of mutated cricket ... that impression has never left me.
Oddly, we have years at the museum where people bring in dozens and then summers without a single report of one. Last summer was one were we didn't get a single one brought to us so I am hoping this year will be the opposite. I am really fond of them even though they can be hard to take care of.
