Salebriopsis is a genus of snout moths. It was described by Hannemann in 1965. It contains only one species Salebriopsis albicilla, which is found in most of Europe, except Ireland, Portugal, most of the Balkan Peninsula and Ukraine.

The wingspan is 19–21 mm. Adults are on wing from May to July in one generation per year.

The larvae feed on Salix species, Tilia cordata, Corylus and Alnus glutinosa. They feed between rolled leaves of their host plant.
