This is a Coleoptera, family Carabidae, pretty similar to Odontocheila sp. here in Argentina.
Thank you very much Daniele.

HI, a Good sequence of pictures, these wasps are parasites, they introduce the eggs inside the spider. Maybe it was inoculated first with some poison to immobilize it. It the wasp was carrying it, surely was trying to introduce it in a den in the ground.
Hi Jim, in this picture you can see the feet completely opened, that improved the grip function. What I don´t know if how they can jump and run over the walls. It seems that gravity is in other direction!.
Thanks maplemoth662
Thank you very much!
Thanks Leuba for your comment. It is less common than other members of this family (Dasypodidae). I found it the field at 120 km from Neuquén City.
In the following site you can see a map with the places this species has been seen.
