Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Erastria decrepitaria sighting in Monterrey on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 365th most-seen of the 413 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.
September
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Erastria decrepitaria in Monterrey on a given day, against under 5% in October to August, the lowest months. That is one of Monterrey's wettest months, with about 200 mm of rain against 20 mm in February.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Erastria decrepitaria sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Monterrey, in our data
Monterrey is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Erastria decrepitaria sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Erastria decrepitaria is recorded against all the insects logged in Monterrey (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.
