Imma uranitis explained

Imma uranitis is a moth in the family Immidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1910. It is found on Sulawesi in Indonesia.[1]

The wingspan is 25–26 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, slightly purplish tinged and with a moderate ochreous-yellow rather oblique median fascia. There is a triangular ochreous-yellow spot on the costa before the apex and a very fine irregular ochreous-whitish line along the upper part of the termen. The hindwings are dark fuscous with a large undefined lighter patch occupying most of the disc, with strong bright blue reflections.[2]
