Contact with these spines is what produces the characteristic \u201csting\u201d resulting in contact dermatitis and a localized hypersensitivity reaction collectively referred to as lepidopterism. Symptoms of lepidopterism may include severe burning pain, pruritis, edema, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and headache.
