Moca mniograpta is a moth in the Immidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1931. It is found in Peru.[1]
The wingspan is about 25 mm. The forewings are dark chestnut-brown, with undefined markings, formed by moss-green irroration and suffusion. There is a patch occupying basal two-fifths, connected by a median projection with a narrow, slightly incurved postmedian fascia (its costal edge whitish-ochreous), some scattered scales beyond this outlining two dark spots on the end of the cell, and subcostal and submedian spots near the termen. The hindwings are dark grey.[2]
