Pogonocherus hispidus is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in 1758, originally under the genus Cerambyx. It has a wide distribution throughout Europe and North Africa. It contains the varietas Pogonocherus hispidus var. rufescens.[1]

P. hispidus feeds on Cornus sanguinea, Corylus avellana, Ilex aquifolium, Hedera helix, and Euonymus europaeus. It serves as a parasitoid for several wasp species, including Dolichomitus agnoscendus, Eurytoma morio, Ephialtes manifestator, Lestricus secalis, and Cenocoelius aartseni. It measures between 4 and 6 mm (0.16 and 0.24 in).[1]
