With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chalk White sighting in Lamington National Park on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 227th most-seen of the 430 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January–February, April and September–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chalk White in Lamington National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March, May–August and December, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chalk White sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Lamington National Park, in our data
Lamington National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Chalk White sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chalk White is recorded against all the insects logged in Lamington National Park (9 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.
