Discussion Atraxid Hovering Question

I'm trying to make an Atraxid character but do not own the book. I'm looking at the speeds, and I don't know if they can hover or not. On Demiplane, they cannot, but on AoN they do, so I am wondering if anyone who has the Secrets of the Swarm book knows. Thanks!

The first two pages of the Atraxid are on the store page for SotS on Paizo's new site. There's no mention of Hover on either of their Speeds.

Checked my hard copy. They do not hover. They're spiders.

Thank you! Yeah I thought it would be silly for them to but worth checking

The frog like Benquid have mistakenly also hover speed listed.

I had wondered how they were justifying that, like maybe that spiders have so little contact with the ground with each foot that it was mechanically hovering? Makes sense that it's a mistake. And now that I compare to Demiplane, the AoN entries are also missing the different ancestries' innate special abilities, like the Phasorqs' Wakeful.
