Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report an Island Brown Pansy sighting in Mantadia National Park on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 7th most-seen of the 24 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.
August and October–November
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report an Island Brown Pansy in Mantadia National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January, March–July and September, the lowest months. Those are among Mantadia National Park's driest months, with about 80 mm of rain a month against 340 mm in January.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Island Brown Pansy sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Island Brown Pansy sightings, Mantadia National Park ranks 2nd at about 30%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Ranomafana National Park (Madagascar, about 30%).
Same family: Nymphalidae
The closest relatives of the Island Brown Pansy that you can see in Mantadia National Park (family Nymphalidae, Brush-footed Butterflies) are Madagascan Mother-Of-Pearl (about 50%), Madagascar Forest Nymph (about 30%) and Madagascar Diadem (about 30%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Island Brown Pansy is recorded against all the insects logged in Mantadia National Park (12 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.
