Hey Raf;

(...) Subadult male of Oxyopes heterophthalmus? (...)

I'd agree on that. The large lateral apophysis of the tibia is already visible and not present in the other species, as far as I know.

Greetings,

Ciao Clemens, just the evident hint of what will be the long and characteristic apophysis directed me to the species.

Greetings.
