Butcherbug

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

Butcherbugs were a very small arachnid species native to Dagobah. They spun very sharp, micro-fine webs between fallen branches and tree roots to snare and slice prey to bits. Because of their small size, butcherbugs were prey for a number of species.

Butcherbugs may also have been found on Lok, as the pirate captain Nym complained of having to wipe the arachnids from the windscreen of his starfighter, Havoc.
