No, Spiders are not bugs.They're arachnids. Technically, spiders are not bugs since they are arachnids not insects. Technically only certain insects are bugs, belonging to the insect order Hemiptera.

Spiders are arachnids, so they are arthropods. Therefore, spiders are bugs.

What spider crab?
No its a crustationcrustaceans & arachnids are both arthropods(phylum) of the kingdom animalia, but a crustacean is a subphylum, while arachnids are a class of the subphylum chelicerata, so it's like they're they're a whole different category. Crabs are a class, malacostraca, of the subphylum, crustacean. As an interesting sidenote, certain"crabs" are not crabs or crustaceans at all; e.g., horseshoe crabs are a class, merostomata, of the same subphylum, chelicerata, as the arachnids, so they are, in fact, a closer relation to arachnids than to crustaceans, kind of like cousins.CRABKingdom: AnimaliaPhylum: ArthropodaSubphylum: CrustaceaClass: MalacostracaOrder: DecapodaSuborder: PleocyemataInfraorder: BrachyuraARACHNIDKingdom: AnimaliaPhylum: ArthropodaSubphylum: ChelicerataClass: Arachnida
