Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow False Tiger Moth 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.
January
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow False Tiger Moth in Bangkok on a given day, against under 5% in February to December, the lowest months. That is one of Bangkok's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain against 280 mm in September.
Only Bangkok, in our data
Bangkok is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Yellow False Tiger Moth sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow False Tiger Moth 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.
