Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Perola subpunctata sighting in Main Ridge Forest Reserve on a given day, based on 20 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 46th most-seen of the 346 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and April
In those months about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Perola subpunctata in Main Ridge Forest Reserve on a given day, against under 5% in June–July and December–February, the lowest months. Those are among Main Ridge Forest Reserve's driest months, with about 65 mm of rain a month against 230 mm in October.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Perola subpunctata 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 Perola subpunctata sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Perola subpunctata is recorded against all the insects logged in Main Ridge Forest Reserve (20 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.
