With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail sighting in Guangzhou on a given day, based on 31 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 104th most-seen of the 482 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.
April and June–September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail in Guangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in May and October–March, the lowest months. Those are among Guangzhou's wettest months, with about 210 mm of rain a month against 30 mm in December.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Flangetail sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
6th of 10
Of the 10 cities where we can rate Common Flangetail sightings, Guangzhou ranks 6th at about 10%. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 20%), Naha (Japan, about 10%) and Changsha (China, about 10%).
Same order: Odonata
The closest relatives of the Common Flangetail that you can see in Guangzhou (order Odonata, Dragonflies and Damselflies) are Russet Percher (about 10%), Wandering Glider (about 10%) and Slender Skimmer (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Flangetail is recorded against all the insects logged in Guangzhou (31 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.
