Hypatima nimbigera is a moth in the family Gelechiidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1926. It is found in Papua New Guinea, where it has been recorded from New Ireland.[1]
The wingspan is 16–19 mm. The forewings are light grey suffused with white with a blackish dot on the base of the costa, and one towards the costa near the base. There are small dark fuscous spots on the costa before and beyond one-fourth, and a semi-oval spot in the middle. There is an irregular patch of dark grey suffusion mixed with blackish extending along the dorsum from one-fourth to three-fourths, triangularly prominent in the middle and nearly reaching the median costal spot. There is a similar subterminal fascia leaving a whitish space before the tornus but slenderly connected with the preceding above this. There are two small blackish spots before the apex, and one on the costa at three-fourths. The hindwings are dark grey, anteriorly thinly scaled and semitransparent.[2]
