Eucosma sombreana is a species of moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found in North America, where it has been recorded from South Carolina and Oklahoma to Iowa, Illinois and Ontario.[2]

The wingspan is 19–25 mm. The forewings are brownish-grey, dusted with pale scales. There is a faint, slightly paler oblique band in the median area, bordered on both sides by dark shading. The hindwings are slightly paler than the forewing.[3] Adults are on wing from June to October.
