With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Phostria lithosialis sighting in Manu National Park on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 296th 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.
January, March and May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Phostria lithosialis in Manu National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February, April and June–December, the lowest months.
Between 5 and 8 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Phostria lithosialis sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Manu National Park, in our data
Manu National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Phostria lithosialis sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Phostria lithosialis is recorded against all the insects logged in Manu National Park (5 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.
