Tetratomid - Eustrophopsis bicolor

Tetratomid - Eustrophopsis bicolor
Horner Park, Richmond Hill (N43º52'20.2"W079º24'45.6"elev.199m), York Region, Ontario, Canada
June 5, 2008
Size: 6 mm
Ontario data point. Collected over a dozen of these beetles by bonking several large (7" plus) fresh Dryad Saddles (Polyporus squamosus).
I can't find much taxonomic information on this species on the web, and it doesn't seem to be listed at Nearctica.com. Marshall(1) illustrates a very similar looking (if not the same) Tetratomid as Synstrophus repandus, pg. 332. Perhaps a newer synonym?
