Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rainbow Battleship sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 680th 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 Rainbow Battleship 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.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Rainbow Battleship sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Limacodidae
The closest relatives of the Rainbow Battleship that you can see in Brisbane (family Limacodidae, Slug Caterpillar Moths) are Four-Spotted Cup Moth (about 10%) and Anaxidia lozogramma (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rainbow Battleship is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (11 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.
