}}Geophilus flavus is a species of centipede in the family Geophilidae.[2] The Geophilidae (like other members of Geophilomorpha) are called soil centipedes. It is terrestrial and commonly found at seashore locations.[1] DescriptionSpecimens are yellow in colour, have 49–57 pairs of legs, and may grow up to {{convert|45|mm}} in length.[3][2] DietThese centipedes feed on other invertebrates in their environment, including other arthropods and earthworms. ReproductionThe females lay clutches of 50-60 eggs in soil or rotten wood. They stand guard over the eggs until the offspring is born. The females sometimes lick the eggs to protect them from fungi.[4] DistributionThis species is found across Europe, and has been introduced into North America and Australia.[2] References1. ^1 {{cite WoRMS |author=A.
