Imma philonoma is a moth of the Immidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1925. It is found on Fiji and Samoa.

The wingspan is about 25–26 mm.[1] The forewings are fuscous, faintly purple-tinged. The second discal stigma is cloudy and dark fuscous. The hindwings are grey, rather darker posteriorly, in males with the dorsal edge rough-scaled and rolled over beneath towards the tornus to form a pocket, a rough-scaled patch towards the termen adjoining this.[2]
