Could it be a Naphrys pulex?
Looks like a good match, but that species is not recorded for Europe.
Here’s a list of all the Jumping Spider found in Switzerland:

It’s a long list, but I’m working on it 😉
Thanks for your feedback… the list is huge!
How am I supposed to find the answer?!? 😉
My best guess off-hand is Pseudeophrys lanigera. Most of our volunteers, except Vonpaulus, live in the USA. Vonpaulus, you are very appreciated and helpful!
Yes @TangledWeb, you’ve got the right species. I’ve been actually working hard on European jumpers over the past few months, 😉
