I think your spider is Oxyopes lineatus. http://eol.org/pages/1199001/overview http://www.araneae.unibe.ch/data/722 http://www.jorgenlissner.dk/Oxyopidae.aspx Oxyopes salticus is an American species and is not found in Europe (though they are similar looking). See what you think!

Hi Jopy, I would check Family Oxyopidae. Beautiful spider! It looks like a female to me.
