          there is such a thing?
          :( that's quite sad ...
          but then I guess, mother nature does have a police
          a way of having certain species in controlled numbers
          sighs .. am glad I haven't seen them around here
          but the name - Philippinus aw!

            Thanks. Name might just be coincidence, since it don't think its endemic species for philippines.

              Hi. It's not a coincidence that the species is named for our country. However, it is common all throughout South East Asia, and all the way to India and Pakistan.
