Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Anvil-Wing Moth sighting in Los Angeles on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 777th most-seen of the 851 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Anvil-Wing Moth in Los Angeles 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 Anvil-Wing Moth sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Anvil-Wing Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Los Angeles (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.
