Camptoloma carum is a moth of the family Nolidae. It is endemic to Taiwan[2][3][4] and occurs in low to mid-altitude mountains (100–2,150 m (330–7,050 ft) above sea level).[4]

The wingspan is 31–40 mm (1.2–1.6 in).[1] Adults are on wing from May at lower altitudes to June–July at higher altitudes. It is likely that the larvae feed on Quercus glauca.[4]
