Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Macrobrochis staudingeri sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 394th most-seen of the 525 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.
June and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Macrobrochis staudingeri in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in July–October and December–May, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Macrobrochis staudingeri sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Seoul, in our data
Seoul is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Macrobrochis staudingeri sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Macrobrochis staudingeri that you can see in Seoul (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Fall Webworm Moth (about 20%), Spongy Moth (about 10%) and Kidokuga piperita (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Macrobrochis staudingeri is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (6 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.
