Coelolepida is a clade of insects in the lepidopteran order, containing the infraorders Acanthoctesia, Lophocoronina, Neopseustina, Exoporia and Heteroneura, with the latter three grouped in clade Myoglossata.^[3]^[4]

Coelolepida comprise all non-eriocraniid Glossata.^[5] They have scales on their wings and on the first thoracic spiracle.^[5] They do not have ocelli.^[5]

Fossils of Coelolepida have been found in the mid Early Cretaceous period.^[1]
