Kheilwar wasp

Kheilwar wasps were a type of exotic creature with fatal stings. In 34 ABY,Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious dates the discovery of the Sketter's Quarrel to 8011 (C.R.C. date) and gives 7977 (C.R.C. date) as the year that the secret mission to Tatooine took place. As Star Wars: Galactic Atlas dates the mission to Tatooine to 0 BBY, the discovery of the Sketter's Quarrel must therefore take place in 34 ABY. the cargo vessel Sketter's Quarrel was discovered dead in space after its crew were stung to death by kheilwar wasps that had escaped from a damaged shipping container on board the vessel.
The Sketter's Quarrel had been carrying a range of creatures to deliver to Regent Solculvis of the Mol'leaj system, who maintained a collection of exotics. Members of the Sector Rangers law enforcement agency investigated the vessel, and information from their file on the case was included in Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious, a book authored by Police Commissioner Exantor Divo and published in 34 ABY.
