Larvae will have to pupate soon as they have eaten all the leaves. Seem to be Psilogramma casuarinae eating the same ash species as others previously seen in the area.

'Moths in the ACT' says "there are a number of other large grey Psilogramma species, but they are not present in the ACT (with the possible exception of vagrants)."

I collected three and have two pupae now (another seems to have died). The others on the stripped tree have disappeared; starvation. predation or pupation?
