Found on underside of leaf with spiderweb. It didn't seem to be caught in the web.

Barklouse
I think it is this one, here. Looks the closest , anyway. I've seen one of these once, and it was in the same situation; under some silk strands. In Marshall's book(1),he makes mention of some Psocoptera can produce silk like tents to help protect themselves.

 
Thanks!
Looks like the right one!
