Imma spanista is a moth of the family Immidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1930. It is found on New Guinea[1] and Papua New Guinea.[2]
The wingspan is about 16 millimetres (0.63 in). The forewings are deep purple with a moderate dark fuscous terminal fascia and a small transverse ochreous-whitish spot on the costa beyond the middle. The hindwings are fuscous, with the posterior three-fifths of the wing suffused with dark fuscous and the area beneath the cell thinly scaled, and beneath this a hyaline (glass-like) subdorsal line.[3]
