Rhopobota myrtillana is a moth of the Tortricidae family. It is found on the British Isles, from northern and central Europe to Asia Minor and Siberia.

The wingspan is 19–21 mm. Adults are on wing in May and June.

The larvae feed on Vaccinium, Ledum palustre, Berberis vulgaris, Cornus sanguinea and Quercus. Larvae found feeding on Vaccinium myrtillus, Vaccinium vitis-idaea and Vaccinium uliginosum live between two leaves spun flatly one above the other, usually on the upper part of the plant.
