Need to complete The Battle Plans quest before this becomes available. Since The Battle Plans does not become available until level 37 this quest also requires level 37 (and not level 36) by default.

Stinglasher and Zukk'ash Infestation are not required for Feralas Quests.
By this stage you should have Taerar's Fall available. Big (and significant) lore driven finale. Go do it you adventurer you! Complete its followup for Feralas Quests.
THANK YOU! I don't know why but I was having the hardest time with this quest, I died like five times. Good to know I don't need it.

What to do
Description
From what scouting we have managed to muster, we believe that the foe south of the gnolls is an insect-like race. Frankly, it is irrelevant whether or not they're sentient. If they are driving the gnolls to frenzy against us, then they are as big of a threat - if not more - than the gnolls. Dive deep into where these Zukk'ash insects dwell; it is known as the Writhing Deep. Thin their numbers and report back to me what you find, bringing back their carapaces as evidence of your handiwork.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Battle Plans
With the battle plans of the gnolls discovered, all that now remains is to bring the plans back to Hadoken Swiftstrider in Camp Mojache. Perhaps he or someone there can make further sense of what the gnolls are up to.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Stinglasher
In surveying the Writhing Deep, one of our scouts reported seeing a giant insect - much larger than the other insects spotted - wandering about the twisted terrain. Not only is it larger, it also seems to secrete some sort of aura that the other insects don't. We've given it a name - Stinglasher.
