Itmaharela is a genus of moths of the Noctuidae family.
This is a replacement name by Nye (1975) for the preoccupied genus Harmatelia (Moore). Lödl & Paumkirchner transferred this genus to Hypeninae in 2001.[2]
At present, there is only one species in this genus: Itmaharela basalis Moore, 1882 that is known from India[3] and Taiwan.[4]
