Demonspider

Demonspiders are demons spawned of the great web, and are usually in spider form. Like their mistress, Lolth, they are often deceivers, relying on trickery, lies, deceit and stealth to destroy their foes utterly.

Bebilith

Bebiliths are enormous, predatory, arachnid demons that hunt other demons. A bebilith has a body the size of a plow horse, with legs spanning more than 14 feet. It weighs more than two tons.
Bebiliths look like misshapen spiders with dark, mottled, chitinous bodies. Their forelegs end in wicked barbs, and their fanged mouths drip poisonous goo.

Yochlol Tactics

Yochlol tactics vary depending on their form. In humanoid form the yochlol will use charming kiss to dominate a foe and turn it against its enemies, using corrupting touch on enemies that get close. If required, the yochlol will change form. In other forms, the yochlol will only change her form to humanoid form if every other option is exhasusted, as they are nude when they first assume humanoid form. In spider form, the yochlol will rely on her venom to slay her foes, while in ooze form she will rely on her many tentacle attacks. If the yochlol seems likely to loose, she will flee in gasceous form.

Demonspider Lore

DC 10 (arachana), DC 15 (religion): Demonspiders are Lolth's demons. They generally take spider form, though this is by no means an indication of their powers.
DC 15 (arachana), DC 20 (religion): Demonspiders are spawned from the arachania in the same way that demons are spawned from the abyss.
DC 20 (arachana), DC 25 (religion): Demonspiders often unite monstrous spiders into colonies, commanding them in the spydric war.
