Introduction  dermatitis arises from inadvertent skin contact with insects of the genus , leading to irritant contact dermatitis. This study aims to highlight the diverse clinical presentations and the remarkable ability of the disease to mimic various dermatological conditions.  Methodology  A total of 15 patients diagnosed with dermatitis in a period of four months from August 2023 to November 2023 were included in this retrospective study. The demographic profile, detailed history, clinical presentation, and site of lesion distribution were documented.  Results  Out of 15 patients, nine were males, and eight were females. All patients exhibited a sudden onset of lesions accompanied by burning and pain, with an average duration of approximately 2.5 days. The most prevalent clinical presentation was the linear type, followed by kissing lesions, an erythematous patch with a central gray area, Nairobi eye, burnt appearance, and post-inflammatory pigmentation.  Conclusion  dermatitis is common in tropical areas like India but is prone to misdiagnosis due to its varied presentation. Increased awareness can lead to accurate diagnoses and simpler treatment plans, reducing patient confusion.
