Ectoedemia marmaropa is a moth of the Nepticulidae family. It was described by Braun in 1925. It is known from North America (including Utah, Wyoming and Ohio).
The wingspan is 4.2-4.4 mm.
The larvae feed on Rosa woodsii. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine begins as a very narrow linear mine, but abruptly enlarges into a blotch which may consume half the area of the leaf. The frass is scattered throughout the blotch.
