Thereuonema tuberculata is a centipede species in the family Scutigeridae. [1] It is native to China, the Korean peninsula, and Japan, [2] [3] and has recently been identified as an introduced species in North America [4] where it is found primarily in the eastern United States, but has been found as far west as Nebraska. In its introduced range it is commonly confused with Scutigera coleoptrata.
