With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Delta conoideum sighting in Bengaluru on a given day, based on 35 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 141st most-seen of the 477 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Delta conoideum in Bengaluru on a given day, against under 5% in May and July–September, the lowest months. That is one of Bengaluru's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain against 150 mm in September.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Delta conoideum sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Delta conoideum sightings, Bengaluru ranks 5th at about 10%. The best odds are in Hajipur (India, about 50%), Jamshedpur (India, about 30%) and Hyderabad (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Delta conoideum is recorded against all the insects logged in Bengaluru (35 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.
