Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a One-Wedged Deuterophysa Moth sighting in Everglades National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 396th most-seen of the 496 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a One-Wedged Deuterophysa Moth in Everglades National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January–February and April–November, the lowest months. Those are among Everglades National Park's driest months, with about 50 mm of rain a month against 240 mm in June.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most One-Wedged Deuterophysa Moth sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Everglades National Park, in our data
Everglades National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate One-Wedged Deuterophysa Moth sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Crambidae
The closest relatives of the One-Wedged Deuterophysa Moth that you can see in Everglades National Park (family Crambidae, Crambid Snout Moths) are Orange-Spotted Flower Moth (about 10%), Watermilfoil Leafcutter Moth (about 10%) and Coffee-Loving Pyrausta Moth (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the One-Wedged Deuterophysa Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Everglades 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.
