Anopina arizonana is a moth of the family Tortricidae first described by Lord Walsingham in 1884.[1] It is found in North America from southern interior British Columbia and from Waterton Lakes, Alberta, south to Arizona.

The larvae possibly feed on dead leaves of Betula and Salix species. The larvae are white with a yellowish-orange to pale-yellow head with a few darker markings.[3]
