Likely
About 40% of wildlife watchers report an Island Brown Pansy sighting in Antananarivo on a given day, based on 43 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 6th most-seen of the 59 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 80%, and over a week to over 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and July
In those months about 60% of wildlife watchers report an Island Brown Pansy in Antananarivo on a given day, against under 5% in January, the lowest month. Those are among Antananarivo's driest months, with about 85 mm of rain a month against 480 mm in January.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Island Brown Pansy sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Antananarivo, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Island Brown Pansy is recorded against all the insects logged in Antananarivo (43 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.
