Hm, interesting question. I did not find a special "cave weaver", either. It looks definitely like a black widow (but with its red signs on the wrong side of the body).
The caveweaver spider appeared in Pathfinder Adventure Path #32: Rivers Run Red. Their stats in that adventure are the same as those for the normal (Medium-sized) giant spider, however. For the (Large-sized) giant caveweaver spider, you can just use the giant black widow spiders stats in Bestiary 2.
Yeah the 'strong webs' special ability of the giant black widow definitely sounds appropriate for the caveweaver. I might use a custom variation too like an extra feat or something just to keep my players guessing...
I like that Paizo is producing minis to support the adventure paths! It's great that Pathfinder has it's own line of pre-painted miniatures now, especially when they're based on the excellent artwork in the publications. Quite a cool sculpt on this mini, I think springing an encounter with a few of these nasty critters would make any adventuring party think twice!
