With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Poropterus magnus sighting in Daintree National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 653rd 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.
April–July, September and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Poropterus magnus in Daintree National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August, October and December–March, the lowest months. Those are among Daintree National Park's driest months, with about 90 mm of rain a month against 380 mm in January.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Poropterus magnus sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Daintree National Park, in our data
Daintree National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Poropterus magnus sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Poropterus magnus is recorded against all the insects logged in Daintree National Park (6 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.
