Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report an Aegocera rectilinea sighting in Accra on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 10th most-seen of the 30 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 60% of wildlife watchers report an Aegocera rectilinea in Accra on a given day, against under 5% in July and October–March, the lowest months.
Only Accra, in our data
Accra is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Aegocera rectilinea sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Lepidoptera
The closest relatives of the Aegocera rectilinea that you can see in Accra (order Lepidoptera, Butterflies and Moths) are Citrus Swallowtail (about 50%), Danaid Eggfly (about 50%) and Plain Tiger Butterfly (about 40%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Aegocera rectilinea is recorded against all the insects logged in Accra (9 verified sightings), 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.
