Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Cyclophora urcearia sighting in Main Ridge Forest Reserve on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 163rd most-seen of the 346 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.
November
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Cyclophora urcearia in Main Ridge Forest Reserve on a given day, against under 5% in March–April, June–July, October and December, the lowest months. That is one of Main Ridge Forest Reserve's wettest months, with about 210 mm of rain against 60 mm in February.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cyclophora urcearia sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Main Ridge Forest Reserve, in our data
Main Ridge Forest Reserve is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cyclophora urcearia sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cyclophora urcearia is recorded against all the insects logged in Main Ridge Forest Reserve (10 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.
