I find it very unlikely that this terrestial hunter would be blind (hard to function as a hunter). The source mentioned is a museum text that is referring to an article of 1855! Since then prepararion and detection of fossils is much approved, so is this still the opinion? If so this is not an ancestor of present day scorpions, who have excellent eyesight.
