Eueretagrotis perattentus, the two-spot dart, is a moth of the family Noctuidae.

There are a few scattered records along the Rocky Mountains from south-western Montana to south-eastern Arizona.

The wingspan is about 32 mm. Adults are on wing from June to July.

Larvae have been reared on Vaccinium and Prunus pennsylvanica.
