Phyllonorycter anceps is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is found in Sardinia, Italy and Crete. The larvae feed on Malus, Mespilus, Prunus dulcis and Pyrus communis. They mine the leaves of their host plant. They create a lower-surface tentiform mine which is 10–12 mm long in Almond and about 15 mm long in Pear. The lower epidermis contains two to three length folds.
