Aethes deaurana is a moth of the family Tortricidae. It was described by Henri de Peyerimhoff in 1877. It is found in Portugal, Spain, the Pyrenees, southern France, Dalmatia, Sardinia, Algeria, Libya and Syria.[3] The moth is a rare migrant to the south of England and may be resident in south Devon and Dorset.[4]

The wingspan is 15–19 millimetres (0.59–0.75 in).

The larvae feed inside the stems of umbelliferous plants such as alexanders (Smyrnium olusatrum) and Chelonus inanitus.[4]
