Hmm, I'm not a fan of the spider, even a monstruous one. The link with Rhinoceros/Unicorn is too remote. We need an horn :=) But also because Musketeer Chess has proposed and is even selling a Spider already, even though I don't like at all the definition he used.
What about the Monoceros, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monoceros_(legendary_creature) I'm pretty sure that it was never used in CVs (I'd be surprised) and there is an obvious parenthood with Unicorn.
