A few moments later when I went back to my bag a brother was eaten by a spider

Rhabdomiris striatellus sounds good! Did you find it close to oak trees? The poor younger brother eaten by the spider was still in nymph stage.

Hello!

Rhabdomiris striatellus (pale form) is correct. The spider is Philodromus margaritatus (Philodromidae).
