Imma niphopelta

Imma niphopelta is a moth of the family Immidae. It is found in New Guinea.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are purple-blackish, the costal edge grey and with a white submedian streak almost from the base to near the middle and some blue-leaden suffusion above this, and at apex the beneath it, and a streak beneath the anterior half of the costa, stronger posteriorly. There is a transverse-oval white blotch in the disc beyond the middle. The hindwings are bright iridescent purple-hyaline, with the veins dark fuscous and a dark fuscous fascia around the costa and apex, becoming narrow and irregular-edged on the upper half of the termen, on the rest of the termen linear with acute projections on the submedian and subdorsal folds.[2]
