The AFD accepts Trismelasmos donovani as a valad name but doesn't mention E. donovani in that entry. A search for E. donovani on AFD finds no entry.

Was this formally known as Endoxyla donovani ? It does not appear in the ALA list.

I think E. leucomochla larvae usually feed underground on Wattle roots. Above ground I think you are more likely to find E. encalypti larvae, which despite their name, feed on Wattles.
