Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report an Apalacris varicornis sighting in Cat Tien National Park on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 58th most-seen of the 125 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and July
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report an Apalacris varicornis in Cat Tien National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January–March and August–November, the lowest months. Those are among Cat Tien National Park's wettest months, with about 370 mm of rain a month against 15 mm in February.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Apalacris varicornis sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Cat Tien National Park, in our data
Cat Tien National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Apalacris varicornis sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Apalacris varicornis is recorded against all the insects logged in Cat Tien National Park (12 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.
