Spell immunity is creature specialty which makes them unable to be target of the specific spell or a range of spells. The immunity also regards creature specialties which cause the same effect as the specific spell or spells. For example, Troglodytes are immune to the Blind spell as well as Unicorns' blinding special ability.

Additionally:

Many creature abilities can be classified as magical or similar to magical. The question arises: if the ability is magical, then how is it influenced by various factors limiting the use of magic? The next table explains how all the creature abilities are working against various magic immunities.
