With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Agathia laetata sighting in Chennai on a given day, based on 18 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 168th most-seen of the 376 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, August and October–January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Agathia laetata in Chennai on a given day, against under 5% in February, April–July and September, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Agathia laetata sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Agathia laetata sightings, Chennai ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Taipei (Taiwan, about 10%).
Same family: Geometridae
The closest relatives of the Agathia laetata that you can see in Chennai (family Geometridae, Geometer Moths) are Acacia Blood Vein Moth (about 10%), Chiasmia emersaria (about 10%) and Comostola pyrrhogona (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Agathia laetata is recorded against all the insects logged in Chennai (18 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.
