I recognized this as Tetragnatha family, from the two belly stripes and the very long front legs, very short 3rd pair and the elongated abdomen. From there, it was an easy European search. Unfortunately, most ID sites only publish the top view and often all we get to photograph is the bottom view. Something to bear in mind when shooting bugs, always try to get as many views as possible, for ID purposes. Dave
