I have documented (photographed) the following Xyloryctinae moths on this property - Clerarcha dryinopa, Cryptophasa irrorata, Cryptophasa rubescens, Lichenaula choriodes, Plectophila discalis, Scieropepla polyxesta, Tymbophora peltastis & Xylorycta leucophanes. The 2 Cryptophasa sp are large enough for a larva of this size. Common 1990 list Casuasina as foodplant for Cryptophasa irrorata. Cryptophasa rubescens foodplant is Acacia sp - https://xyloryctinemothsofaustralia.blogspot.com/search?q=Cryptophasa+rubescens
I frequently find C. irrorata moths sitting in Allocasuarinas including a pair Sighting 4662807.

A. addita? - or a different Anthela species? Judging by the 3rd photo the emerged moth is a female. I must say I do not find the comparison of this sighting with the photo of th female on Lepidopters Butterfly House very supporting of the ID as A. addita here:- See
