Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Euagoras plagiatus sighting in Guangzhou on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 211th most-seen of the 482 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.
April to July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Euagoras plagiatus in Guangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in August to March, the lowest months. Those are among Guangzhou's wettest months, with about 240 mm of rain a month against 30 mm in December.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Euagoras plagiatus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Euagoras plagiatus sightings, Guangzhou ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Euagoras plagiatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Guangzhou (13 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.
