Renanthopsis mildred jameson

So I recently came across pictures and videos of Renanthopsis mildred jameson and see that it's very prevalent in Europe. Can't seem to find it for sale in the US though. Anyone know if there are any...

I did have something chewing on some of my orchids' leaves. Not sure if they were slugs or snails. Tried to find them but couldn't and didn't see any slime trails. Might have been caterpillars.
