Nymph
Spell-like Abilities : Nymphs can replicate druid spells as 7th-level casters.
Aranea
Spells : Araneas cast spells as 3rd-level sorcerers.

The Aranea entry makes perfect sense to me. Look up 3rd level sorcerer. Find the spells known and the spells per day. No problem.
The Nymph entry, on the other hand, confuses me.
"For creatures with spell-like abilities, a designated caster level serves to define how difficult it is to disepl their spell-like effects and to define any level-dependent variable (such as range and duration) the abilities might have. The creature's caster level never affects which spell-like abilities the creature has; sometimes the given caster level is lower than the level a spellcasting character would need to cast the spell of the same name."
Nymphs can replicate Druid spells. The caster level does not affect which spell-like abilities they have. They can cast spells of a higher level than a 7th level druid could.
The Monster Manual doesn't list which spells they can cast, so the implication is that they have access to all Druid spells.
Reverse Gravity. Earthquake.
Elemental Swarm, for 10 minutes/level.
How am I reading this wrong?
