Elaver sp.
This looks like an immature Elaver sp. It seems to fit all the info I've read on the genus. This source(1) makes it easy to distinguish between Clubiona and Elaver. In this case, it for sure points to Elaver. The range is right, too. I'm not sure how to ID them to species yet, but I know there are 8 species to choose from.

Clubionidae?
Eye arrangement suggest sac spider. Maybe a juvenile?
