Imma mylias is a moth of the Immidae family. It is native to Sri Lanka, India, the Andaman Islands, the Philippines and Taiwan. It is an introduced species in Hawaii.
Larvae were reared from pupae found on a banana leaf and have also been reared on foliage of Albizzia species (including Albizia saman), Acacia farnesiana and Pithecellobium dulce. The larvae are green. They leave their feeding sites to pupate under a bark or in litter. The pupa is formed within a loosely woven cocoon.
