With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cruria synopla sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 196 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 64th most-seen of the 742 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
September to May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cruria synopla in Sydney on a given day, against under 5% in June to August, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cruria synopla sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Sydney, in our data
Sydney is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cruria synopla sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Noctuidae
The closest relatives of the Cruria synopla that you can see in Sydney (family Noctuidae, Cutworm Moths and Allies) are Bogong Moth (about 20%), Lily Caterpillar Moth (about 10%) and Australian Grapevine Moth (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cruria synopla is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (196 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.
