Identification/ advice

Hey, so I accidentally transported this scorpion from Italy (Verbania region) to Belgium. (I thought it was dead, and I like collecting dead bugs, until it started moving halfway through Switzerland..)

I believe it is a member of the Alpiscorpius Genus, but what species I don't really know.

It now lives in a small terrarium in which I put some wood chips and leaves, but I have a 20x20x40 cm one that I want to convert. But I have not a single clue on what to put in it so she will actually like it.

For food, I am currently catching grasshoppers in my yard, and that seems to be working for now, I feed her every 5-7 days.

I would really like to know how I can give her the best possible life I can, including care, food, housing... so I'm hoping some of you could help me with that.

Ps: Sorry for the bad photos, my camera is trash.

TLDR: I have accidentally become the parent of a scorpion, and I'm hoping to get some tips on how to care for it.

Rama Revealed question. (book 4 Rama series)

I recently finished Rama Revealed, the 4th book in the Rendezvous with Rama series (by Arthur C. Clarcke). I quite enjoyed it, but it bothered me how >!the symbiotic relationship between the avians and the myrmecats was never explained. The avians clearly get something out of the partnership, but what is in it for the myrmecats?!< Maybe I just missed it, but I'm fairly certain it was never addressed.

I'm sorry if this is the wrong subreddit for this question, but I couldn't find one dedicated to the series.
