Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Detritus Moth sighting in Melbourne on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 480th most-seen of the 875 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Detritus Moth in Melbourne on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Detritus Moth sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Detritus Moth sightings, Melbourne ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Auckland (New Zealand, about 20%) and Lisbon (Portugal, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Detritus Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Melbourne (16 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.
