Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Pyrausta limbopunctalis sighting in Sierra Nevada National Park on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 103rd most-seen of the 479 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.
June and July
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Pyrausta limbopunctalis in Sierra Nevada National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Pyrausta limbopunctalis sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Sierra Nevada National Park, in our data
Sierra Nevada National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Pyrausta limbopunctalis sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Pyrausta
The closest relatives of the Pyrausta limbopunctalis that you can see in Sierra Nevada National Park (genus Pyrausta, Mint Moths) are Straw-Barred Pearl (about 20%) and Scarce Crimson And Gold (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pyrausta limbopunctalis is recorded against all the insects logged in Sierra Nevada National Park (15 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.
