Cameraria superimposita is a moth of the Gracillariidae family. It is known from Utah, United States.[1]

The larvae feed on Acer grandidentatum. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine has the form of a rather small whitish blotch mine on the upperside of the leaf, with one or two wrinkles in the epidermis at the time of pupation.
