With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Episparis sighting in Kanha National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 81st most-seen of the 106 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.
July
In that month about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Episparis in Kanha National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months. That is one of Kanha National Park's wettest months, with about 430 mm of rain against 10 mm in November.
Between midnight and 3 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spotted Episparis sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Kanha National Park, in our data
Kanha National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Spotted Episparis sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Spotted Episparis that you can see in Kanha National Park (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Handmaiden Moth (about 50%), Lymantria marginata (about 40%) and Banyan Tussock Moth (about 40%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spotted Episparis is recorded against all the insects logged in Kanha National Park (7 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.
