Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Walker's Moth sighting in Manu National Park on a given day, based on 32 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 28th most-seen of the 366 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Walker's Moth in Manu National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February, the lowest month.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Walker's Moth sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
5th of 13
Of the 13 parks where we can rate Walker's Moth sightings, Manu National Park ranks 5th at about 20%. The best odds are in Brownsberg Nature Park (Suriname, about 40%), Braulio Carrillo National Park (Costa Rica, about 40%) and Main Ridge Forest Reserve (Trinidad and Tobago, about 30%).
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Walker's Moth that you can see in Manu National Park (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Paraethria flavosignata (about 20%), Emeraldine (about 20%) and Black Witch (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Walker's Moth is recorded against all the insects logged in Manu National Park (32 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.
