Cameraria picturatella is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from Connecticut, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York and Maine in the United States.[1]

The larvae feed on Myrica caroliniensis and "Myrica pensylvanica". They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a brownish blotch mine on the upperside of the leaf.[2]
