I realise the white creatures the ants are tending may actually be moth's eggs but not sure what species. Thanks for IDing the ant species!

I think Cranmbus humerellus is quite likely, which would be a new species sighting for NatureMapr, especially based on the 3rd and 4th photos particularly. C. humerellus is placed in the 'Technitis Group' of Tortricine moths which iNaturalist's AI model selected as its first choice for this image. BOLD is apparently offline at the moment but it would be good to check that source.

I'm biased because it's the bit I go to most often, but that's the nicest part of Monga in my opinion. I'll have to pop past at the end of this week, I love the Goodia.

Unbelievable images Nate! Sorry about the slow response - I don't know this ant too well so had to do some background work before could confirm! Cheers, Jon
