Phyllonorycter manzanita is a moth of the family Gracillariidae. It is known from California, United States.[1]
The larvae feed on Arctostaphylos glauca and Arctostaphylos manzanita. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a grayish blotch mine, with the upper epidermis loosened and elevated, but at no stage wrinkled. This leads to a somewhat inflated mine in which most of the parenchyma is consumed.
