Moca antiquata is a moth in the Immidae family. It was described by Meyrick in 1913. It is found in Guyana.[1]
The wingspan is 11–12 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous, irregularly sprinkled with violet-whitish, especially on the undefined transverse bands at one-third and two-thirds and a narrower terminal fascia, the postmedian band forming a small while spot on the costa at three-fifths. There are two small round spots of the dark groundcolour transversely placed on the end of the cell. The hindwings are dark fuscous, lighter in the disc and towards the base.[2]
