Any chance of rearing it to get an adult for identification?

Not for this particular specimen. I don't know what its food plant is. It appeared on some netting I was sorting so could have come from any of several nearby plants. Options would be Banksia serrata, Bursaria spinosa, E pavifolia, another eucalypt whose name escapes me, a ti tree (no idea which species), or even an evergreen oak.
I can go looking ... may not find any. And today is going to be busy with plants which I know a whole heap more about.
