Ectoedemia quadrinotata is a moth of the family Nepticulidae. The known range of this species includes Ohio and Kentucky in the United States, and Manitoba, Ontario, and Quebec in Canada.[1][2] This species was first described by American entomologist Annette Frances Braun in 1917.[1][2]
The larvae mine the leaves of Carpinus caroliniana and Corylus americana.[1] There are two generations per year (bivoltine), with mines initiated in July and again starting in late August.[1]
