Scorpion bigger than human described

That article is very weird. It mentions the group of animals that it belongs to, but doesn't actually name them. I assume based on the time and size that it's a eurypterid, but those aren't really scorpions.
And finding footprints is hardly the same as describing a new animal. I'm very confused.

It does sound like a eurypterid, but not only is a new specimen not actually mentioned (just tracks showing it crawling onto the shore), but the size listed in the article isn't even bigger than a human! Now, some of them could and did reach about 3 meters in length, but the biggest number they throw out in the article is 1.6.
Demiurge out.

I love stuff like this 
Did anybody catch Walking With Monsters on the Discovery Channel? They had a section abaout the Silurian period, 410 million years ago, where the scorpians domonated the land and preyed on our distant fishy ancestor, the Alaspis. Great stuff.
