Tarountula may be based on the {{wp|Orb-weaver spider|orb-weaver spider}} alongside members of the {{wp|Uloboridae}} family, which are non-venomous and wrap their prey in bundles of silk. Its silk-covered abdomen evokes a yarn ball and may serve as a literal take on an "orb-weaver." Tarountula's {{Shiny}} coloration resembles the [[Destiny Knot]].

Its silk-covered abdomen evokes a yarn ball and may serve as a literal take on an "orb-weaver", though it may also be the spherical pods that ''{{wp|Deinopis}}'' spiders create to shelter their eggs - especially as its evolution Spidops appears to be primarily based on these spiders. Tarountula's {{Shiny}} coloration resembles the [[Destiny Knot]].
