Eucosmophora echinulata is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from Paraguay.[1]
The length of the forewings is 4.1 mm for females.[2]
The larvae probably feed on a Fabaceae species and probably mine the leaves of their host plant.
Etymology[]
The specific epithet is derived from the Greek echinulatos (meaning with small spines), in reference to the dense concentration of spines within the corpus bursae.
