Brunia antica is a moth of the Arctiidae family. It is found from the Indian Subregion to China, the Ryukyu Islands, the Chagos Archipelago, the Nicobar Islands and Sundaland.
There is strong sexual dimorphism in the imago, with the males having a more or less uniform straw colour, whereas females have the forewing darker, greyer, with a narrow straw-coloured costal strip.
The biology is unknown, but the larvae probably feed on lichen and/or algae.
