Thiodia glandulosana is a moth of the family Tortricidae. It is found on the Canary Islands and Madeira.[2]
The wingspan is 13–21 mm. The forewings are ochraceous suffused with brownish. The hindwings are greyish fuscous.[3]
The larvae feed on Rhamnus glandulosa. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The young larvae create a full-depth mine which starts near the midrib and closely follows a lateral vein for its entire length. Older larvae live among spun leaves.[4] Full-grown larvae reach a length of about 12.5 mm. They are uniformly olive green with a light brown head.
