Spider Eating Spider, Pt. 3 - _TNY_5642
A female common lugubrious wolf-spider (Pardosa lugubris) eating what I believe to be a small Linyphiidae spider.
There are several closely related species which look almost identical, but since the only one with a distribution as far north as Härnösand, Sweden, where this was taken, the ID is certain.

Right next to this one was her sister which also had gotten lucky and was eating a small beetle: www.flickr.com/photos/tinyturtle/53220299520/
