To get an idea of size, the holes on the light sheet are roughly 1 mm across.
All of these moths were photographed at the same locality and within the past 2 weeks.

Hi David,
A great collection of moths!
May I suggest a couple of IDs, of ones that are familiar to me in SE QLD/NE NSW:
The one captioned '?Lacera sp.' is Catocalinae>Heterormista psammochroa...I have seen this on Tamborine Mountain...the pose is very odd, suggests to me it's mimicking a bracket fungus, always face down with the wings cupped to display the transverse markings.
The moth captioned 'Oecophoridae, genus?' is an Agriophara species, possibly ANIC3. I get Agriophara ANIC4 in dry rainforest in Lismore NSW. Very beautiful when fresh.
regards,
Nicholas Fisher
