I have no idea what this is a Caterpillar of only that it eats at a an alarming rate with large waste pellets being deposited at the rear almost at conveyer belt speed in one end and out of the other.
This Caterpillar looks smaller than it is he is noshing my Arum Lily plant which has large leaves the length of the caterpillar is 6.5 centimetres and suspect not fully grown. I have thought of keeping it for a while, I have a goodly supply of Arum's.
Not sure about the species' distributions down your way but try Drinker and Fox moths
