Not sure this can be attributed to G. bitaeniariae because the sighting specimen seams to lack the orange and pink blotches characteristic of the caterpillar for this species shown at:
http://lepidoptera.butterflyhouse.com.au/enno/bitaeniaria.html , neither is it shown on that species known host Eucalyptus sp. Might be better to describe this caterpillar as 'Gastrinodes sp.'
