Coleophora coronillae is a moth of the Coleophoridae family. It is found from Germany to Italy and Bulgaria and from Lithuania to the Iberian Peninsula. It is also found in southern Russia, Transcaucasia, central Asia and Iran.

The larvae feed on Coronilla varia. They create a dull, two-valved tubular silken case with a mouth angle of about 45°.[2] Larvae can be found from September to May.
