Stigmella aromella is a moth of the family Nepticulidae which is endemic to Ontario, Canada.
Late instar larvae have been found in mid-August and mid-September, with adults on wing in February, March and late August. There are probably two generations per year.
The larvae feed on Populus species, including Populus deltoides and Populus x canadensis. They mine the leaves of their host plant.
