With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Idalus daga sighting in Manu National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 170th most-seen of the 366 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Idalus daga in Manu National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May and November–March, the lowest months.
Between 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Idalus daga sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Manu National Park, in our data
Manu National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Idalus daga sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Idalus
The closest relatives of the Idalus daga that you can see in Manu National Park (genus Idalus) are Idalus fasciipuncta (about 10%) and Idalus aleteria (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Idalus daga is recorded against all the insects logged in Manu National Park (8 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.
