Arachne were arachnids native to Endor. A bio-engineered group also made their way to Talus, but these were mostly eradicated by a group of spacers working for the Corellian Security Force. A type of Arachne was also known to inhabit the Krayt Cult Cave on Tatooine, though they were probably imported to Tatooine from elsewhere.

Behind the scenesEdit

In the MMORPG Star Wars Galaxies, most of the gigantic Arachne spiders are defined as being an Angler. Yet the name is often misleading, because creatures such as the bone gnashers are defined as an Angler, despite being on Tatooine, where fishing for prey is virtually impossible.
