Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report an Anoplognathus olivieri sighting in Royal National Park on a given day, based on 104 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Anoplognathus olivieri is recorded against all the insects logged in Royal National Park (104 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.
