Likely
About 40% of wildlife watchers report a Raffray’s White sighting in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park on a given day, based on 36 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 2nd most-seen of the 38 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May, July and September
In those months about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Raffray’s White in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August and November–December, the lowest months.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Raffray’s White sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Bwindi Impenetrable National Park, in our data
Bwindi Impenetrable National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Raffray’s White sightings: about 40% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Raffray’s White is recorded against all the insects logged in Bwindi Impenetrable National Park (36 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.
