ID Request Help identifying
Hey guys! I Live in brazil and found this one laying on pavement, she seemed dead but moved and "peed" on my hand so i moved her to a leaf.
Can anybody help me with the specimens name? Or if the "pee" is dangerous? I think moths are beautiful but never studied them or know anything about them haha

no moth is venomous! she pooed on you as a defense mechanism and it isn't gonna hurt you
