Is the leaf a gum leaf?

Opodiphthera is an interesting suggestion. Did you see them being laid,? Or have you seen eggs spaced like this from Emperor moths previously? I have never encountered any. If not, then other insects besides moths may have laid them. If you can keep them and rear them, it would be good to have documentary evidence of their species.
