A Darachnid is a terrifying species of dragon. They greatly resemble a spider with its eight eyes and eight legs. Darachnids are carnivores, they hunt by spinning webs through his tail and mouth, when its prey gets stuck in the web the Darachnid can ignite the web, which is highly flammable and burns its prey to death. For such a large dragon (About 20 feet in height) they are surprisingly light and graceful, they are able to crawl on their webs without breaking them. They have poor eyesight, so they rely on their hearing, sense of smell, and vibrations from movement. Darachnid are a very unique and dangerous addition to the world of dragons.

That's wonderfully dramatic, especially in your use of colour. To me it brings to mind something I might have seen in Out of the Pit -- which is a compliment, incidentally!
It's a guide to monsters in the Fighting Fantasy gamebooks. I can't find the exact illustration I had in mind online, but this one (worksafe) is also from FF and is along the same lines, albeit less colourful.
