I guess it was about 3-4 mm long, on part of a wooden-post fence.

Thanks Stephane, pity it wasn't in the National Park, Physiphora alceae (Preyssler 1791) and already known from Greece. anyway here it is again with the mite so you know I wasn't lying.

Yes, P. alceae without mite or pseudoscorpion is not P. alceae. :)
