Here's what I noticed:

Removed

"...by having three conspicuous keels on its mesosoma's dorsal surface." WP:Jargon

Attempted rewording

"...it is known to rely solely on its venom to capture its prey and to care for its young." Defend its young?

Replaced

"The Seychelles forest scorpion was originally described in 1896 by Karl Kraepelin as Archisometrus braueri; by 1913 it was moved to the genus Lychas by Arthur Stanley Hirst." Best to split this into two sentences and replace the bolded "by" with "in."

Replaced and already split it now

"It is one of only three species of scorpion found in the Seychelles." I'd suggest moving this to Distribution.

Moved

"Its sting is not considered for humans." I can only assume "Its sting is not considered dangerous for humans" was meant.

Replaced

I recommend redlinking "Dillenia ferruginea." Also, it appears you or another editor described the plant as "fauna."

Redlinked and replaced fauna into flora

"The invasive ant species Technomyrmex albipes is known to have killed individual Seychelles forest scorpions." The word "individual" is not needed and slightly awkward.

Removed

"A female was found in June 2009 carrying seven young on her back, which, like other scorpions, she would continue to care for until the young can survive on their own." Awkward wording. Seems to switch tenses.

Reworded

All in all, not bad. The only issues are grammar and organization; it seems like you've collected as much information as can be gleaned from the limited research on them. --An anonymous username, not my real name (talk) 00:58, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
