I missed something. Ungoliant bred with "foul creatures of spider form" and didn't make offspring on her own. It's interesting that Tolkien describes her mates that way, and doesn't just call them spiders. The "spider form" hints that they were perhaps Maiar or other spirits who took the form of animals.

A herald in battle would be a worthy leader and formidable fighter themselves
