With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Stenoptena icmaea sighting in Blue Mountains National Park on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 456th most-seen of the 789 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July and August
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Stenoptena icmaea in Blue Mountains National Park on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months. Those are among Blue Mountains National Park's driest months, with about 50 mm of rain a month against 150 mm in March.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Stenoptena icmaea sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Blue Mountains National Park, in our data
Blue Mountains National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Stenoptena icmaea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Oecophoridae
The closest relatives of the Stenoptena icmaea that you can see in Blue Mountains National Park (family Oecophoridae, Concealer Moths) are Tortricopsis pyroptis (about 10%), Philobota protecta (about 10%) and Hoplostega ochroma (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Stenoptena icmaea is recorded against all the insects logged in Blue Mountains National Park (9 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
