order + Araneida

This is a straightforward taxonomic NP: 'order' (a taxonomic rank) combined with the taxon name 'Araneida' (defined as the arachnid order including true spiders) yields the meaning directly. The composition follows standard scientific naming conventions found across languages, so a learner who knows both constituents will understand it.

Etymology

Order Araneida uses order to mean a large 'group' and Araneida comes from old words for 'spider'. So order Araneida is the scientific name for the group that includes all 'spiders'.
