''Electrocrania'' is an extinct genus of
micropterigid moth. It is known from two species found in
Eocene aged
Baltic amber. The genus was originally described by
Nikolai Yakovlevich Kuznetsov in 1941. The genus was subsequently synonymised with ''
Micropterix'', until a second species was described in 2015, which restored it as a distinct genus.
