Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hednota pleniferellus sighting in Melbourne on a given day, based on 44 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 276th 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.
December and January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hednota pleniferellus in Melbourne on a given day, against under 5% in February to November, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hednota pleniferellus sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Melbourne, in our data
Melbourne is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Hednota pleniferellus sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hednota pleniferellus is recorded against all the insects logged in Melbourne (44 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.
