Imma strepsizona is a moth in the family Immidae. It was described by Edward Meyrick in 1906. It is found on Sulawesi.[1]

The wingspan is about 26 mm. The forewings are fuscous, irrorated (sprinkled) with dark fuscous and towards the base with pale ochreous. There is a small ochreous-yellowish basal spot beneath the costa and there are two suffused pale ochreous-yellowish transverse streaks enclosing a moderate fascia of ground colour partially mixed with pale yellowish, running from the middle of the costa to three-fourths of the dorsum, above the middle constricted and with streaks twice confluent. The wing beyond this fascia is wholly blackish fuscous. The hindwings are dark fuscous.[2]
