Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Meganoton nyctiphanes sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 960th most-seen of the 1045 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 a Meganoton nyctiphanes in Singapore 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 Meganoton nyctiphanes sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Singapore, in our data
Singapore is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Meganoton nyctiphanes sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Meganoton nyctiphanes is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (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.
