I didn't collect any of the specimens from that night, however I can do back and try to find them, and raise them to adulthood.

I'm not sure what they eat though and pretty rubbish at plant identification. I'd assume the caterpillars found on live plants that have leaves, would eat that species of plants, however some of the caterpillars like this one; were on dead trees with no foliage
Lepidoptera unclassified IMMATURE
