Cameraria acericola is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from Japan (Hokkaido) and the Russian Far East

The wingspan is 6.5–8.5 mm.

The larvae feed on Acer mono. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine consists of a blotch which is entirely flat and located on the upper surface of the leaf. The cocoon is buff white, ellipsoidal and placed in the centre of the mine-cavity.
