With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Idalus fasciipuncta sighting in Manu National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 203rd 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.
July and August
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Idalus fasciipuncta in Manu National Park on a given day, against under 5% in September to April, the lowest months. Those are among Manu National Park's driest months, with about 65 mm of rain a month against 290 mm in February.
Between 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Idalus fasciipuncta 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

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Idalus fasciipuncta is recorded against all the insects logged in Manu National Park (7 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.
