👉 The term "arachnological" refers to the study of spiders, particularly those that are known as arachnids. These creatures have a long, slender body with eight legs and several tentacles, which they use for traversal, defense, and food preparation. Arachnology is an interdisciplinary field that combines biology, zoology, entomology, paleontology, and other disciplines to understand the anatomy, behavior, ecology, and evolution of arthropods, including spiders.
