Here a close picture of a little lonchaeid. Could it be in the genus Setisquamalonchaea? Picture from the Netherlands.

No, it definitely is Lonchaeidae.

Hi Gerard
As Paul states - this is a Lonchaeid - a female in the genus
Lonchaea or as you stated
Setisquamalonchaea. The tarsomeres are apparently all darkened but the key charactes for
Setisquamalonchaea of two strong katepisternal setae and a group of long hairs on the squaml fringe are not visible - so I can't be sure of its exact identity. ........... Iain
