With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Balinese Snake-eyed Skink sighting in Denpasar on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 23rd most-seen of the 28 reptiles we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August and November
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Balinese Snake-eyed Skink in Denpasar on a given day, against under 5% in December to July, the lowest months. Those are among Denpasar's driest months, with about 80 mm of rain a month against 320 mm in January.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Balinese Snake-eyed Skink sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Denpasar, in our data
Denpasar is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Balinese Snake-eyed Skink sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Scincidae
The closest relatives of the Balinese Snake-eyed Skink that you can see in Denpasar (family Scincidae, Skinks) are Many-lined Sun-skink (about 40%), Emerald Tree Skink (about 20%) and Bowring’s Supple Skink (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Balinese Snake-eyed Skink is recorded against all the reptiles logged in Denpasar (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.
