Coleophora loti is a moth of the Coleophoridae family. It is found in the Canary Islands.

The larvae feed on Lotus sessilifolius. They create a hairy, compact, composite leaf case, built from the stipulae (stem). The length is about 6 mm and the mouth angle is about 45°.[2] Larvae can be found from February to April.
