Eupholus chevrolati is a species of beetle belonging to the family Curculionidae.
Eupholus chevrolati can reach a length of about 25 millimetres (0.98 in). The basic colour of this quite variable species is metallic blue-green, with some transversal irregular black bands along the elytra. The blue-green colour derives from very small scales. The top of rostrum and the end of the antennae are black.
