Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Therates labiatus sighting in Raja Ampat on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 12th 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.
July
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Therates labiatus in Raja Ampat on a given day, against under 5% in April–May, October and December–January, the lowest months. That is one of Raja Ampat's wettest months, with about 360 mm of rain against 180 mm in October.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Therates labiatus sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all 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 Therates labiatus sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Therates labiatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Raja Ampat (19 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.
