Photographed recently from east China. Size somewhere near 5mm. Looks somewhat similar to a Paragus species. Or I'm looking at a wrong genus? Thanks!

Maybe Triglyphus?

Terrific! Thank you Karsten very much for the suggested ID. I think Triglyphus primus looks very promising. The species has been reported to occur in east China and it looks very similar to my photo. The basitarsus of the hind leg is similarly bulged.
