Bark beetles have been reported to have lengths ranging from 1.7 to 2.1 millimeters, with their length approximately 2.3 times as long as they are wide. [7] They come in black and dark brown body colors.
Tyrpophloeus populi has been found throughout North America, from East Nevada and North Arizona to Saskatchewan and New Brunswick. [7]
