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

The wingspan is about 19 mm. The forewings are blackish-fuscous, with ochreous-yellow markings. There is a submedian streak from the base to two-fifths, posteriorly dilated. A small oblique wedge-shaped spot is found on the costa at one-fifth and there are two large rounded-triangular spots on the costa at one-third and two-thirds, and two larger spots in the dorsal half of the wing rather obliquely beyond these respectively. The hindwings are blackish-fuscous, towards the base more thinly scaled and with several slender semi-transparent streaks. There is a longitudinal ochreous-yellow spot in the disc beneath the middle.[2]
