Stigmella birgittae is a moth of the family Nepticulidae. It was described by Gustafsson in 1985. It is present in Gambia, Oman and Saudi Arabia.[1]
The wingspan[2] is 3.6–4.1 mm (0.14–0.16 in) for males.
The larvae feed on Ziziphus mauritiana and Ziziphus spina-christi. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a gallery, and frequently also forms a small blotch through coalescence of the windings. The frass is deposited in a narrow central line. The larvae are yellowish green. When they leave the mine, they make a slit in the upper surface.
