Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Etanna clopaea sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 981st 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 Etanna clopaea in Brisbane on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Etanna clopaea sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Etanna clopaea sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Nolidae
The closest relatives of the Etanna clopaea 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 Etanna clopaea is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (5 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.
