Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Callizygaena auratus sighting in Chennai on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 338th most-seen of the 376 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June–July and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Callizygaena auratus in Chennai on a given day, against under 5% in August–September and November–May, the lowest months. Those are among Chennai's wettest months, with about 150 mm of rain a month against 5 mm in February.
Only Chennai, in our data
Chennai is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Callizygaena auratus sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Callizygaena auratus is recorded against all the insects logged in Chennai (5 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.
