Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Nola fasciata 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.
February
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Nola fasciata in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in March to January, the lowest months. That is one of Brisbane's wettest months, with about 160 mm of rain against 40 mm in July.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Nola fasciata sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Nola fasciata sightings, Brisbane ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Kochi (India, under 5%) and Taipei (Taiwan, under 5%).
Same genus: Nola
The closest relatives of the Nola fasciata that you can see in Brisbane (genus Nola) 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 Nola fasciata 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.
