With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a White-Kneed King Cricket sighting in Daintree National Park on a given day, based on 27 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 100th most-seen of the 856 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a White-Kneed King Cricket in Daintree National Park on a given day, against under 5% in June and December–January, the lowest months. That is one of Daintree National Park's wettest months, with about 330 mm of rain against 50 mm in September.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most White-Kneed King Cricket sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 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 White-Kneed King Cricket sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the White-Kneed King Cricket is recorded against all the insects logged in Daintree National Park (27 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.
