Imma crocozela is a moth in the family Immidae. It was described by Meyrick in 1906. It is found in New Guinea.[1]

The wingspan is about 21 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous-purple with ochreous-yellow markings. There is a fine costal streak, dilated towards the base and a streak in the disc from near the base to the middle. A large oblique triangular blotch is found on the middle of the costa, the apex directed towards the tornus and reaching two-thirds across the wing. There is also an elongate mark along the dorsum from one-third to three-fourths and a narrow fascia around the apical fourth of the costa and termen to the tornus, broadest at the apex. The hindwings have a subdorsal groove. They are dark fuscous, lighter towards the base and dorsum.[2]
