As to the prominent anterodorsal bristles on middle tibia, I'd say
Thelaira nigripes, but better wait for an expert for confirmation!

Definitely
Thelaira - probably
nigripes but the species can be annoyingly difficult to split because the size and number of bristles are slightly variable :)

The presence of outer verticals is much better feature... however, cannot be seen in this picture
