Small brown/grey spider - Eustala

Small brown/grey spider - Eustala
Fairfax, Fairfax County, Virginia, USA
July 17, 2009
Size: 3mm
I found this in a tree with a very minimal web around one of the smaller limbs. It was near another bug that looked like a lichen and the other bug was alive.

Looks to be an Orb Weaver
maybe in the genus Eustala
