foot pad
arólio


Explanation:
Não sou expecialista nesta área, mas pela forma como essa perna ou pé é descrita, penso que seja esse o termo mais técnico.

Arólio:

Estrutura pre-tarsal em forma de almofada, entre as garras ou unhas de alguns insetos.

Expansão membranosa coberta de pêlos do pós-tarso ou pré-tarso dos insectos.

O glossário de entomologia pode ser útil.

foot pad
estrutura especial nas patas


Explanation:
Acredito que o mais seguro neste caso seja algo mais genérico, como "estrutura".

Se o texto tratasse de um mamífero ou até alguns répteis, como o lagarto, "coxim" seria correto, mas não acredito que seja adequado para aranhas e insetos...

Também acredito que "garra tarsal" não seja adequado... Garra tarsal = tarsal claw
