The part pertinent to what I was saying is that there is no evidence that Ungoliant ever dwelt in Mirkwood or the surrounding locales.

Of course, I could make the case that "south" could still refer to Beleriand, since we are not informed exactly how far in that direction it extended, nor how far Ungoliant really went, but I shan't. I concede the point.
