Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black Slug Cup Moth sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 17 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 538th 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.
February
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Black Slug Cup Moth in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in March to January, the lowest months. That is one of Brisbane's wettest months, with about 160 mm of rain against 40 mm in July.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Black Slug Cup Moth 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 2 cities where we can rate Black Slug Cup Moth sightings, Brisbane ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Sydney (Australia, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black Slug Cup Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (17 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.
