Stigmella aeneofasciella is a moth of the Nepticulidae family. It is found in most of Europe, except the Iberian Peninsula and Balkan Peninsula and the Mediterranean Islands.

The wingspan is 4.4-5.5 mm. Adults are on wing from April to May and again from July to August. There are two generations per year.

The larvae feed on Agrimonia eupatoria, Fragaria vesca, Potentilla anserina, Potentilla erecta and Potentilla reptans. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The first part of the mine is a long, slender corridor, rather straight, often following a vein or the leaf margin. At the end, the corridor widens into a large blotch.
