Thanks for the info ZackSaavedra!

Ah, this is a nice photo of a Philodromid. Its second pair of legs aren't significantly longer than the first, which means it's not Ebo. It's not small and slender, so Tibellus is out too. I doubt it's Apollophanes or Titanebo, and the lack of a pointed black stripe on the abdomen means it can't be Thanatus. Therefore, I can confidently say it's Philodromus.
