Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report an Elissa Page sighting in Tambopata National Reserve on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 9th most-seen of the 141 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.
March, May and November
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report an Elissa Page in Tambopata National Reserve on a given day, against under 5% in January, June and August–September, the lowest months.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Elissa Page sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Elissa Page sightings, Tambopata National Reserve ranks 3rd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Manu National Park (Peru, about 20%) and Yasuní National Park (Ecuador, about 20%).
Same family: Nymphalidae
The closest relatives of the Elissa Page that you can see in Tambopata National Reserve (family Nymphalidae, Brush-footed Butterflies) are Many-Banded Daggerwing (about 30%), Julia Heliconian (about 20%) and Malachite (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Elissa Page is recorded against all the insects logged in Tambopata National Reserve (23 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.
