Accidental contact with these caterpillar bristles causes local symptoms such as intense heat, pain, edema and itching which last for three to seven days; however, after multiples contacts, it may induce joint-space narrowing and bone alteration, as well as degeneration of the articular cartilage and immobilization of the affected joints. Specific treatment for this disease does not exist, but corticosteroids are frequently administered. Despite of the public health hazard of Premolis semirufa caterpillar poisoning, little is known about the nature of the toxic components involved in the induction of the pathology. Methodology/Principal Findings: Here we have investigated the biological and immunochemical characteristics of the caterpillar’s bristles components. Analysis of the bristles extract in in vitro assays revealed the presence of proteolytic and hyaluronidase activities but no phospholipase A2 activity. In vivo, it was observed that the bristles extract is not lethal but can induce an intense inflammatory process, characterized by the presence of neutrophils in the paw tissues of injected mice.

Abstract.— Podalia bolivari (Heylaerts) is unusual among the Megalopygidae in its ex- treme sexual dimorphism, as well as the male habitus. Association of the sexes is confirmed and the species is redescribed to allow its identification. Observations on the natural history of P. bolivari are given. Problems of generic concepts in Megalopyginae are dis- cussed.

Orozco‑Flores 1, José A. Valadez‑Lira 1, Karina E. Covarrubias‑Cárdenas 1, José J. Pérez‑Trujillo 2, Ricardo Gomez‑Flores 1, Diana Caballero‑Hernández 1, Reyes Tamez‑Guerra 1, Cristina Rodríguez‑Padilla 1 & Patricia Tamez‑Guerra 1* Contact with stinging spines venom from several Lepidoptera larvae may result in skin lesions. In Mexico, envenomation outbreaks caused by Megalopyge opercularis were reported between 2015 and 2016. The aim of this study was to identify the venomous caterpillars in Nuevo Leon, Mexico and evaluate several biological activities of their hemolymph (HEV) and spine setae (SSV) venoms. M. opercularis was identifed by cytochrome oxidase subunit (COI) designed primers. HEV and SSV extracts cytotoxic activity was assessed on the L5178Y‑R lymphoma cell line. For apoptotic cells number and apoptosis, cells were stained with acridine orange/ethidium bromide and validated by DNA fragmentation. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (hPBMC) cytokine response to the extracts was measured by the cytometric bead array assay. Extracts efect on pro‑coagulation activity on human plasma was also evaluated. HEV and SSV extracts signifcantly inhibited (p < 0.01) up to 63% L5178Y‑R tumor cell growth at 125–500 µg/mL, as compared with 43% of Vincristine. About 79% extracts‑treated tumor cells death was caused by apoptosis. Extracts stimulated (p < 0.01) up to 60% proliferation of resident murine lymphocytes, upregulated IL‑1β, IL‑6, IL‑8, and TNF‑α production by hPBMC, and showed potent pro‑coagulant efects.

Moreover, they present moth larvae that cause extracutaneous manifestations, such as severe coagulation disorders and ankylosing arthropathies, and dermatitis related to adult insects. The main groups of Lepidoptera that cause injuries in humans are presented as well as current therapeutic alternatives.
