Euxoa chimoensis is a moth of the Noctuidae family. It is found in Quebec and Labrador. It is known only from three specimens. It is considered rarely seen, but there is a possibility it is not rare in the coastal eastern arctic.
It is sometimes treated as a subspecies of Euxoa macleani.
Adults have been collected in July.
The larvae probably eat leaves, and are probably polyphagous.
