Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lophotoma diagrapha sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 621st most-seen of the 742 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lophotoma diagrapha in Sydney on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Sydney, in our data
Sydney is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Lophotoma diagrapha sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Lophotoma diagrapha that you can see in Sydney (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are White Cedar Moth (about 10%), White Antennae Wasp Moth (about 10%) and Lichen-Eating Caterpillar (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lophotoma diagrapha is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (7 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.
