same as Xyleborus atratus Eichhoff ??
Rabaglia et al 2006 (Review of American Xyleborina Occurring North of Mexico, with an Illustrated Key) does not have an Ambrosiophilus atratus, but does have a Xyleborus atratus. I assume they are the same, but I don't know in which genus it is currently considered.

We have guide pages under both genera.
