Caloptilia diversilobiella is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is found in the United States (California). [1]

The eggs of this moth are laid on oak (Quercus) leaves. When hatched, the larva at first mines the leaves in a gallery leading to a blotch. The larva then form cones by folding the tips of the leaves, and feeding within. [2] The larvae feed on Poison Oak ( Toxicodendron diversilobum).
