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

The wingspan is 34–40 mm. The forewings are blackish fuscous, slightly purplish tinged. There is an orange median band, greatly dilated downwards, the anterior edge running from one-fourth of the costa to one-fourth of the dorsum, straight, somewhat irregular, the posterior edge running from before the middle of the costa to three-fourths of the dorsum, twice curved outwards above and below the middle. The hindwings are blackish fuscous with a rather irregular orange blotch resting on the median third of the costa, narrowed downwards, reaching more than halfway across the wing.[2]
