HD 85725, also known as HR 3916, is a yellow hued star located in the southern constellation Antlia. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.29, [1] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility. The object is relatively close at a distance of 176 light-years, [2] but is receding with a heliocentric radial velocity of 61.6  km/s . [5]

HD 85725 has a stellar classification of G1 V, [3] which suggests that it is an ordinary G-type main-sequence star that is fusing hydrogen at its core. However, a low surface gravity of 7,244  cm/s2 [9] and evolutionary models indicate that is an evolved subgiant. [2]

At present it has 143% [6] the mass of the Sun but is 2.59 times larger, [7] which is not characteristic of a yellow dwarf. It shines at 7.6 [8] times the luminosity of the Sun from its photosphere at a surface temperature of 5,940 K, [7] which gives it a yellow glow. At an age of 2.75 billion years, [6] HD 85725 is spinning leisurely with a projected rotational velocity of 5.9  km/s . [11]

There is a 10th magnitude companion located 1.5 away along a position angle of 25° . It appears to have a common proper motion with the star, suggesting physical relation. [13]
