Not Keroplatus (not even 'Keroplatini' because the antennae are not strongly flattened. Somewhere in the group with Orfelia-like genera. Not enough details of chaetotaxy are visible.

Chandler wrote (page 45): [...] There are no previously described Palaearctic species but a single male from Italy belongs to an undescribed Truplaya, not closely related to this group of the genus. In absence of further data about that undescribed male, this 2022 female should be a first record for Europe, not just for Italy. I'll ask Peter about it.
