The yellowtail moth, also called the ashen moth, is a moth from northeastern South America. Its hairs can cause a skin rash and itching in people who touch them or breathe them in. It matters because the moths can reach towns, where they gather around lights.1

Contact with the hairs of adult females causes Caripito itch, a skin condition. The hairs can also be carried into the air when moths swarm near towns, causing severe hives and dermatitis with small blisters.1

Females use their irritating hairs to protect their egg masses from predators such as ants.1
