Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Glyphodes cosmarcha sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 721st 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 a Glyphodes cosmarcha in Brisbane on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Glyphodes cosmarcha sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all 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 Glyphodes cosmarcha sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Glyphodes cosmarcha is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (10 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.
