Purella

The Purella was a large spider-like predator native to the moon Yavin 8. They were large bristle-haired spiders with glowing orange eyes. The purella trapped its prey in a thick black web and would then slowly eat them. The purella preyed on the sapient Melodies though it was also prey in turn by the giant bird-like avrils, which were on the top of the moon's food chain.

During a trip to Yavin 8, Humans Jedi trainees Anakin Solo and Tahiri Veila along with their Melodie firend Lyric faced one of these creatures.
