The acrocerid should be Ogcodes reginae based on morphology alone as no reference barcodes are available yet. The spider host (subadult female and hence impossible to ID from morphology alone) is closest to Clubiona leucaspis. In France there are 31 Clubiona species (Fauna Europaea) but only for 6 of them a barcode exists. Nevertheless, our host spider has a genetic distance from C. leucaspis of only 1.1%.
