You guys really like your massive arachnids, don't you.
Let's see...
Species of ant: fusca, rufa, cephalotes, sanguinea, burchelli, odontomachus. So in total 6 species.
Species of arachnid: florentina, littoralis, salticidae, batessi. So four species of arachnophobia modes.
We could count how many individual models/types of each species, but ants would probably win that hands down.
I'm just impressed with how many bloody spiders you have put in your game.

Don't forget harvestmen (opiliones), which gives us 5 different arachnids. I suppose they're just a diverse bunch.

Something cool about every arachnid we've gotten is that they all have unique AI. Funnel-webs have their snatch, kill, repeat behavior, wolf spiders ignore ants upon entering a nest and run to constructed chambers, jumping spiders will avoid large groups they can see, harvestmen will do cheesy RTS baiting to draw in small amounts of enemies at a time, and whip spiders reposition themselves if enemies gather up too close to them.
