Imma periploca is a moth in the Immidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1910. It is found in New Guinea.[1]
The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous-purple with an ochreous-yellow streak running around the base, the costa, and the termen, forming a narrow basal patch which extends on the costa and the dorsum so that the edge is concave, very slender through the middle of the costa, at the apex forming a triangular patch, and again very finely attenuated towards the tornus. The hindwings are blackish-grey.[2]
