 io moth - Automeris io (Fabricius)
The urticating or "stinging" spines and setae of some caterpillars are a well-known chemical defense found in several families of Lepidoptera, especially Megalopygidae, Limacodidae, Saturniidae, and a few Nymphalidae, Anthelidae, Lasiocampidae, Bombycidae, Eupterotidae, Lymantriidae, Arctiidae, and Noctuidae (Matheson 1950, Riley and Johannsen 1938, Roth and Eisner 1962, Wirtz 1984).
Toxicity in Lepidoptera is also found in adults, where scales may be urticating in some families (Notodontidae: Thaumetopoeinae), Lymantriidae, Arctiidae, and Saturniidae) or where integumental glands produce an urticating chemical (Zygaenidae and Arctiidae) (Rothschild et al.
Other hairy caterpillars are not known to cause reactions to persons of average sensitivity.

 Urban IPM: Insects: Stinging Caterpillars
A number of caterpillar species have evolved stinging hairs or urticating spines as an effective form of defense. 
This form of chemical defense is found in several families particularly Megalopygidae, Limacodidae, Saturniidae, and a few Nymphalidae, Anthelidae, Lasiocampidae, Bombycidae, Eupterotidae, Lymantriidae, Arctiidae, and Noctuidae. Adult moths do not sting though some display toxicity causing an illness known as Lepidopterism, caused by exposure to the setae (hairs) on the adult.
Other adult moths contain urticating scales, such as those found in the following families (Notodontidae, Thaumetopoeinae, Lymantriidae, Arctiidae, and Saturniidae) or have integumental glands that produce an urticating chemical (Zygaenidae and Arctiidae).

 Caterpillars of Australian LYMANTRIIDAE
The adults are short lived because they have a reduced haustellum and do not feed.
It has been recommended that the scientific names of many species in LYMANTRIIDAE be changed after detailed morphological studies, particularly by Jeremy Holloway and published in his more recent book
The 73 named Australian members of LYMANTRIIDAE in that publication are:
