Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Elasmia cave sighting in Austin on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1205th most-seen of the 1624 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year

Only Austin, in our data
Austin is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Elasmia cave sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Elasmia cave is recorded against all the insects logged in Austin (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.
