Lingonberry spider - female

Lingonberry spider - Female
Torch River Provincial Forest, Saskatchewan, Canada
September 24, 2012
Size: ~ 2 mm.
Came from a low lying area sheltered by Pine forest. I left a pail of Lingon berries sit for a couple of days before cleaning. There were several aphids, a few juvenile Tetragnatha and this spider on the underside of the lid.

Neospintharus trigonum ?
It's missing the split tail though... maybe immature? Or maybe something else in the Argyrodes/Faiditus/Neospintharus/Rhomphaea group.

Sure looks like it, but I don't know.
Ilona L. shows two that are similar size and colour.
2011 Sask Taxa list doesn't include any in that group, but then it doesn't include Metrioptera either. http://bugguide.net/node/view/690572
