Lampronia intermediella is a moth of the Prodoxidae family. It is found in Slovakia and Romania.[1]

The wingspan is about 16.5 mm. The forewings are shining yellowish brown, with two cream white spots on the termen.[2]

The larvae feed on Corylus species. They initially mine the leaves of their host plant.[3] Later, they create a case and become vagrant on the forest floor.
