Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Cyrestis paulinus sighting in Raja Ampat on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 10th most-seen of the 46 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
October and December
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Cyrestis paulinus in Raja Ampat on a given day, against under 5% in January–February, May–June, September and November, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cyrestis paulinus sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Raja Ampat, in our data
Raja Ampat is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cyrestis paulinus sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cyrestis paulinus is recorded against all the insects logged in Raja Ampat (13 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.
