With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Triangular-Striped Moth sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 186 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 143rd most-seen of the 1045 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Triangular-Striped Moth in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Triangular-Striped Moth 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.
Yes
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Triangular-Striped Moth sightings, Singapore has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Chennai (India, about 10%).
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Triangular-Striped Moth that you can see in Singapore (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Hübner's Wasp Moth (about 30%), Erebus ephesperis (about 10%) and Nyctemera lacticinia (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Triangular-Striped Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (186 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.
