Caloptilia vicinola is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from South Africa and Zimbabwe.[2]

The larvae feed on Monanthotaxis species. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of an irregular, transparent blotch-mine, often between two parallel veins and thus having an irregular square shape.
