Collita coreana is a moth of the family Arctiidae. It is found in Korea.[1] Records for the Russian Far East and Japan are probably based on misidentifications of Manulea ussurica.

The wingspan is 25–27 mm. The forewings are yellowish grey with a smooth yellow costal streak. The hindwings are the same colour, but slightly paler.
