Despite efforts to understand its pathophysiology, little is known about the biology of the implicated species, treatment approaches, and outbreak prevention and control. This affects the direction of clinical management and exacerbates the social and public health implications of lepidopterism. In March 2024, the Ministry of Health of Costa Rica was alerted about human cases of dermatitis in the Tucurrique District, Cartago Province, which residents attributed to moths. Fifteen adult moths were collected in the surroundings of a school in the affected community. The specimens were morphologically identified as\n                    <jats:italic>Hylesia invidiosa<\/jats:italic>\n                    (\n                    <jats:italic>H. invidiosa<\/jats:italic>\n                    ).

Moreover, in March 2025, a second outbreak with the same characteristics was reported in the Tuis District, Cartago Province. To the best of the authors\u2019 knowledge, this is the first published report of lepidopterism outbreaks associated with\n                    <jats:italic>H. invidiosa<\/jats:italic>\n                    .
