With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Callopistria pulchrilinea sighting in Daintree National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 567th 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.
January and April
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Callopistria pulchrilinea in Daintree National Park on a given day, against under 5% in June to December, the lowest months. Those are among Daintree National Park's wettest months, with about 270 mm of rain a month against 50 mm in September.
Between 6 and 9 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Callopistria pulchrilinea sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all 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 Callopistria pulchrilinea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Callopistria pulchrilinea is recorded against all the insects logged in Daintree National Park (7 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.
