An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Bot-spiders may appear inert, blending in with their surroundings until a suitable prey approaches. They then swarm, descending en masse to feed on the victim. Though individually fragile, large numbers of the parasites can overwhelm most transformers, eventually resulting in death. The bot-spiders then appear to cocoon their victims in a coral or fungus-like growth until they reach mummified state. The proses can cause exo-structural bleaching, giving the shells a ghostly age-whitened appearances.

Note: Bot-spiders appear to be part of Unicron's immune or digestive system, responding to commands and acting in-tandem with other such systems—but the Decepticon Wheeljack recognized them, indicating the creatures are known on Cybertron as well. Because the bot-spiders' lair within Unicron is also the location of the secret Cybertron-Unicron warp gate they may simply have spread from one location to the other.
