During the summer of 1959, many cases were reported from Tokyo area of accidental dermatitis caused by contact with a kind of hairy caterpillars, which crowd on bamboo leaves growing in the garden. These caterpillars were identified as the larva of a zygaenid moth, Artona funeralis Butler, which is distributed from Hokkaido to Kyushu and is sometimes known as a pest of bamboos. It was revealed from literature and information that local outbreaks of this larva have occurred mainly in the southern part of this country. It has further been believed that the dermatitis may be caused by some sort of poisonous hair on the larva, but no attempt has ever been made even to ascertain which hair on the larva is responsible. In the present study were described some results of morphological and histological observations on the poison hair and of a series of experiments on its possible sting mechanism.
