Sailor Lethe & Sailor Mnemosyne

Some people refer to them as the Desert River Senshi because the area around Shadow Galactica that they guarded was a desert.

The author should emphatically mention that “Desert River Senshi” is a name that was created by fans.  Such a name is not attested in the manga.

Mnemosyne is not a river, but a Titan and the Mother of the Nine Muses, so technically the Mother of Memory.

Mnemosyne could not have been the “Mother of Memory” because her name means memory in ancient Greek () and she was the personification of memory.  How could she be her own mother?

These two Sailor Soldiers only appeared in the manga.

This is a abrupt topic change.  The author was talking about the Lethe and Mnemosyne from classical mythology in the sentences before this one.  This sentence should say, “Sailor Lethe and Sailor Mnemosyne appear only in the manga.”

""Galactica Myosotis Alpestris!" (M. alpestris is an alpine species of the forget-me-not flower.)

Myostis alpstris is not simply “an is an alpine species of the forget-me-not flower.”  It is the binomial nomenclature of the Alpine Forget-Me-Not.  (Myostis alpstris even means forget-me-not of low moutains.)

Suddenly, two animates appear on sand pillars behind them.

In this sentence, the author is referring to Sailor Chi and Sailor Phi.  Those two sailor soldiers do not introduce themselves to us until volume eighteen.  They are never shown to be members of the Sailor Anima-Mates.
