With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Anarsia anisodonta sighting in Daintree National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 511th most-seen of the 856 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report an Anarsia anisodonta in Daintree National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May to January, the lowest months. That is one of Daintree National Park's wettest months, with about 240 mm of rain against 50 mm in September.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Anarsia anisodonta 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 Daintree National Park, in our data
Daintree National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Anarsia anisodonta sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Anarsia anisodonta is recorded against all the insects logged in Daintree National Park (8 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
