Pseudoholostrophus is a genus of polypore fungus beetles in the family Tetratomidae. There are at least four described species in Pseudoholostrophus. Two of these described species are Nearctic.[1][2][3]

Pseudoholostrophus is distinct from Holostrophus due to the presence of its smaller, more weakly emarginate eyes and the prosternal process not extending behind the posterior edge of the procoxae.[4]
