With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Triangular-Striped Moth sighting in Kanha National Park on a given day, based on 6 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.
September and December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Triangular-Striped Moth in Kanha National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February, April–August and October–November, the lowest months.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Triangular-Striped Moth sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 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 Triangular-Striped Moth sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Triangular-Striped Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Kanha 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.
