The Pygmy Needle Tortricid (Epinotia pygmaeana) is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found from northern and central Europe to eastern Russia.
The wingspan is 12–14 mm. Adults are on wing from late March to early June.
The larvae feed on Picea abies, Picea excelsa, Picea sitchensis and Abies alba. The larvae mine and later spin the needles of their host, causing a decrease in growth.
