With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Conogethes haemactalis sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 80 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 176th most-seen of the 1083 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August and November–May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Conogethes haemactalis in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in June–July and September–October, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Conogethes haemactalis sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Conogethes haemactalis sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Conogethes haemactalis is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (80 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.
