With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Maile Pilau Hornworm sighting in Fuzhou on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 42nd most-seen of the 60 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November and December
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Maile Pilau Hornworm in Fuzhou on a given day, against under 5% in January–May, July–August and October, the lowest months. Those are among Fuzhou's driest months, with about 60 mm of rain a month against 250 mm in June.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Maile Pilau Hornworm is recorded against all the insects logged in Fuzhou (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.
