Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Austrocarea iocephala sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 806th most-seen of the 1083 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Austrocarea iocephala in Brisbane on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Austrocarea iocephala sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Austrocarea iocephala sightings, Brisbane ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Perth (Australia, under 5%).
Same family: Nolidae
The closest relatives of the Austrocarea iocephala that you can see in Brisbane (family Nolidae, Tufted Moths) are Nola elaphropasta (about 10%) and Nola squalida (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Austrocarea iocephala is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (8 verified sightings), 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.
