monstrous spider question

First Post
Hi folks, I just can't get my brain into gear this morning , so I thought I'd ask here :confused:

The monstrous spider has a racial bonus of +4 to Hide checks, which I am assuming is calculated into the stat block?

However, monstrous hunting spiders gain a +8 racial bonus to Hide. Does this mean that the stat block should be adjusted by an additional +4 to Hide, to compensate for this (ie, they don't stack, right?)? I am also assuming that their +8 racial bonus on Jump is not included in the stat block?

I guess the same question also applies to web-spiners, when they're in their webs (+8 racial bonus on Hide and Move Silently checks)?

Thanks.

The hunting and webspinner bonuses are not included in the stat block. Once you decide which spider is present, add the appropriate bonuses of the given type. It's easier that way than the statblock choosing one for you and making you subtract/add because most people will forget to subtract, but not add. :)
