Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hypodoxa emiliaria sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 601st 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.
September
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hypodoxa emiliaria in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in October to August, the lowest months. That is one of Brisbane's driest months, with about 40 mm of rain against 160 mm in February.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hypodoxa emiliaria 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 Hypodoxa emiliaria sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Geometridae
The closest relatives of the Hypodoxa emiliaria that you can see in Brisbane (family Geometridae, Geometer Moths) are Apple Looper (about 10%), Comostola laesaria (about 10%) and Cleora repetita (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hypodoxa emiliaria is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (13 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.
