Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Club Silverline sighting in Bangkok on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 228th most-seen of the 245 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.
March
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Club Silverline in Bangkok on a given day, against under 5% in April to February, the lowest months. That is one of Bangkok's driest months, with about 45 mm of rain against 280 mm in September.
6th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Club Silverline sightings, Bangkok ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Chattogram (Bangladesh, about 20%), Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Taipei (Taiwan, under 5%).
Same family: Lycaenidae
The closest relatives of the Club Silverline that you can see in Bangkok (family Lycaenidae, Gossamer-winged Butterflies) are Tiny Grass Blue (about 10%), Lesser Grass Blue (about 10%) and Plains Cupid (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Club Silverline is recorded against all the insects logged in Bangkok (5 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.
