Noticed the corpse spiders in lumbridge catacombs weren't considered spiders, so I took a little peek and found a few mislabeled categories.

Hey I messed up here, I didn't test it properly. First off it's "spiders" not "spider", second off, there's no slayer exp assigned to corpse spiders in the first place.

No slayer exp found for slain monster: NPC(id=corpse_spider, index=17192, tile=Tile(3981, 5554, 0))

Comment thread data/entity/npc/monster/undead/corpse/corpse.npcs.toml Outdated
drop_table = "corpse_spider"
categories = ["corpse_spider"]
categories = ["spiders", "zombies", "undead"]
slayer_xp = 6.6

It doesn't look like they gave slayer_xp in 2011, they were only added in the 2023 slayer update.

|slaylvl = No They do not count as spiders for Slayer tasks.

Hey that's handy, is ?oldid=4633922 interchangeable on all wiki links? So far I've been just looking at the current wiki, any updates posted at the bottom, and guessing.

Unfortunately not but you can find the relevant one by clicking the history button top right and going back to a date ~2011

I see then, it appears none of them were actually able to be used for slayer tasks.
