Bucculatrix myricae is a moth in the Bucculatricidae family. It was described by Ragonot in 1879. It is found in France, Spain, Portugal and Romania.
The wingspan is about 7 mm.
The larvae feed on Myrica species. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a gallery with blackish frass. Older larvae live freely on the leaf and cause upper-surface window feeding. Larvae can be found in July.
