With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Antlered Crane Fly sighting in Bengaluru on a given day, based on 81 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 76th most-seen of the 477 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May, July–September and November
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Antlered Crane Fly in Bengaluru on a given day, against under 5% in March, the lowest month. Those are among Bengaluru's wettest months, with about 110 mm of rain a month against almost none in January.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Antlered Crane Fly is recorded against all the insects logged in Bengaluru (81 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.
