Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Idaea macrospila sighting in Bengaluru on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 360th most-seen of the 477 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.
July and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Idaea macrospila in Bengaluru on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months. Those are among Bengaluru's wettest months, with about 110 mm of rain a month against almost none in January.
4th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Idaea macrospila sightings, Bengaluru ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Pune (India, about 10%), Chennai (India, about 10%) and New Delhi (India, about 10%).
Same family: Geometridae
The closest relatives of the Idaea macrospila that you can see in Bengaluru (family Geometridae, Geometer Moths) are Chiasmia emersaria (about 10%), Acacia Blood Vein Moth (about 10%) and Black Looper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Idaea macrospila is recorded against all the insects logged in Bengaluru (7 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.
