Ungoliant is a primordial spider from Tolkien's The Silmarillion, the mother of Shelob from The Two Towers. The name is Sindarin (the main Elven language spoken in Middle Earth) for "Dark Spider" and is pronounced oong-GOHL-yant (IPA uŋˈɡoljant).
I don't really read Tolkien but I have to admit that's a pretty cool name.

Alright I'm a bit embarrassed to admit this but May has surprised me again with yet another molt! It happened three days ago. Idk if you can see in the pic but she is black with pinkish spots. She's not taking any food in a few weeks either so I'm hoping she comes out to look for food very soon. Can anyone tell me if she has any molts left in her? She's done it twice since I got her.

Here's a better pic. Is she an adult? Is it even a she? Padipalps are way more prominent. She hasn't eaten in a while too. She showed her fangs when I tried to give her a mealworm with the head crushed.
