Okay Kuopiofi. Powers Spider's have.

Peacock Spider: Wing Flaps that allow it to glide. So Enhanced Gliding.

Green Lynx Spider: Can Spit Venom at attackers. Is suppose there is a Toxic/Poison Spit article on this wiki? Would Poison breath work here?

Dolomedes/Fishing Spider: Has hairs on it's feet that are unwettable. So Water Walking.

Diving Bell Spider: Capable of inshrouding it's abdomen in an air bubble, allowing it to live the majority of it's life underwater, they also possess bell shape web under water that they keep an air supply in, the bell itself is capable of gas exchange trading out carbon dioxide for oxygen if the water is well oxygenated. The Aquatic Respiration article would work here.

I am still suggesting Stinger Protrusion, and the reason why is because that is essentially what most Spider's fangs are. There are two seperate groups of spiders. Ones that tear apart prey after poisoned and then regugetate digestive juices onto it and the lick the contents into their foregut(Tarantulas and such). Then there are those that spew their acid through the mouth and into the wound caused by the fangs and suck the contents back into their foregut(Garden Spiders and the like). In both cases the fang acts as nothing more than a paralytic or killing stinger.

Camouflage: The tent web spider is know to change colors very rapidly to conceal itself. Others can do this but it takes a bit longer. The crab spider for instance take the course of a day or so to change it's color.
