Eustrophus tomentosus is a species of polypore fungus beetle in the family Tetratomidae. It is found in North America.[1][2][3]
This species contains characteristic yellowish-orange setae abundant throughout elytra surface.[1]
It is able to be distinguished from Eustrophopsis through the absence of a prothoracic episterna transverse suture.[1]
