Bark Crab Spider - Bassaniana

Bark Crab Spider - Bassaniana
La Grande, Union County, Oregon, USA
December 11, 2017
Size: Body about 5 mm
I'd originally submitted this identification request to BugGuide as a possible Xysticus species. But thanks to a suggestion from John Balaban, I now think it may be a Bassaniana species, and in particular, Bassaniana utahensis.

Thanks!
Thanks for the ID assistance!

Nice! Much better image
Let's see what Lynette has to say

Not enough pixels to make out the typical Xysticus carapace
Wonder if this might be a Bassaniana
