Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Mango Flower Webworm sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 14 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 575th 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 and April
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Mango Flower Webworm in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in March and May–January, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Mango Flower Webworm 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 Mango Flower Webworm sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Tortricidae
The closest relatives of the Mango Flower Webworm that you can see in Brisbane (family Tortricidae, Tortricid Leafroller Moths) are Cotton Tipworm Moth (about 10%) and Orange Fruit Borer (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Mango Flower Webworm is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (14 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.
