Acalyptris lesbia is a moth of the family Nepticulidae. It is only known from Skala Kallonis on Lesbos in Greece.
The wingspan is 4-4.8 mm.
The larvae feed on Limonium gmelinii. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine consists of a full-depth gallery, starting much contorted, often spirally, later becoming a full-depth mine with a narrow broken, brown frass line, following a straighter course through the leaf. The larval exit hole is located on the upperside of the leaf. The cocoon is white and usually spun on the underside of the leaf.
