With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Oreta jaspidea sighting in Daintree National Park on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 376th 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 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February and December
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Oreta jaspidea in Daintree National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March and August–November, 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 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Oreta jaspidea sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
Only Daintree National Park, in our data
Daintree National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Oreta jaspidea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Drepanidae
The closest relatives of the Oreta jaspidea that you can see in Daintree National Park (family Drepanidae, Hooktip and False Owlet Moths) are Tridrepana lunulata (about 20%) and Hypsidia erythropsalis (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Oreta jaspidea is recorded against all the insects logged in Daintree National Park (11 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.
