Rose tarantula http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chilean_rose_tarantula (Popular pet species.)

Cobalt blue tarantula http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt_blue_tarantula (Less popular species, due to aggression. Lovely color though. Maybe kobolds could ride giant versions ;)

Mountain jumping spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euophrys_omnisuperstes (The Himalayan jumping spider lives at the highest altitude of any creature (except presumably its prey). Though very rare, might add a touch of variety to dull mountains.)

Portia spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portia_(genus) (A spider with a staggering array of tricks for getting prey.)

Brown recluse spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_recluse_spider (Infamous for its necrotic venom, which must be far more problematic without modern medical care. Often mistaken for other species, but can be identified by the number of eyes: six.)

Six-eyed sand spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six-eyed_sand_spider (Related to the above, rumored to be even more dangerous, although its desert habitat means it is less likely to come into contact with humans.)

Spitting spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spitting_spider (One of the fastest attackers in the animal kingdom. Sprays prey with sticky venom from afar.)

Ladybird spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eresus (An attractive species that's sadly endangered in Britain, although common as muck in Europe.)

Redback spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Redback_spider (Similar to American widow spiders. Considered medically significant, although deaths are rare, even without antivenin)

Wandering spider http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brazilian_wandering_spider (Almost certainly the most dangerous spider. Aggressive, fearless and very poisonous. "Laboratory mice subjected to P. nigriventer venom experienced intense penile erections before succumbing to the toxin." - Wikipedia)

Deathstalker scorpion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deathstalker (Deserts. Aptly named)

Spitting scorpion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parabuthus_transvaalicus (Sprays venom from its tail, like an honest-to-god Transformer. Quite dangerous, even without this ability. Video here http://s146.photobucket.com/albums/r264/galapoheros/?action=view&current=DSCN9794.flv )

Desert hairy scorpion http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_desert_hairy_scorpion (Large, but unthreatening species from the Americas)

Dark cave scorpion http://bugguide.net/node/view/34626 (Cave-dweller often communal. Venom was not mentioned, so I'm going to assume it isn't deadly. Don't do this at home, kids!)

Soil centipede http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centipede#Geophilomorpha (Long, threadlike centipede. Represents various geophilomorphs. Found in soil, but you probably guessed that.)

Cave centipede http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centipede#Scutigeromorpha (Generalised giant tropical scutigeramorph. Very long legs, evolved to locate prey in the dark, and terrify humanoids. Possibly painful (but not deadly) bite.)

House centipede http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scutigeridae (Similar to above, but lives in your house. Name is arguably problematic. Suggest "fortress centipede".)

Greater centipede http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scolopendra_gigantea (Renamed giant centipede. A tropical/cave-dwelling species (although there is presently no way to confine a creature to caves in tropical biomes).
