0005464: Giant desert scorpion is an arachnid not an insect.
In the description for Giant desert scorpions it reads:

"A gigantic insect with huge pincers and a poisonous barbed tail. It is found in the savage lands."

Where it should read:

"A gigantic arachnid with huge pincers and a poisonous barbed tail. It is found in the savage lands."

This might be deliberate in case a player doesn't know what an arachnid is but would get the gist when they see insect.
