Neurobathra bohartiella is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from California, United States.[1]

The larvae feed on Quercus agrifolia. They mine the leaves of their host plant. It is thought that late-season generations are dependent on early-season defoliations by a dioptid moth that result in secondary flushing of new leaves.
