With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Polyura agrarius sighting in Bengaluru on a given day, based on 50 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 117th 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 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February and March
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Polyura agrarius in Bengaluru on a given day, against under 5% in May, August and October, the lowest months. Those are among Bengaluru's driest months, with about 10 mm of rain a month against 150 mm in September.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Polyura agrarius is recorded against all the insects logged in Bengaluru (50 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.
