With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Caloptilia linearis sighting in Egmont National Park on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 79th most-seen of the 191 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
October
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Caloptilia linearis in Egmont National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April–August and November–December, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Caloptilia linearis 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 Egmont National Park, in our data
Egmont National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Caloptilia linearis sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Caloptilia linearis is recorded against all the insects logged in Egmont 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.
