Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Common Redeye sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 18 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 488th most-seen of the 1125 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–August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Redeye in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in September and November–May, the lowest months. Those are among Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 180 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in December.
13th of 15
Of the 15 cities where we can rate Common Redeye sightings, Hong Kong ranks 13th at under 5%. The best odds are in Yogyakarta (Indonesia, about 20%), Thiruvananthapuram (India, about 10%) and Dhaka (Bangladesh, about 10%).
Same family: Hesperiidae
The closest relatives of the Common Redeye that you can see in Hong Kong (family Hesperiidae, Skippers) are Indian Palm Bob (about 10%), Formosan Swift (about 10%) and Pale Awlet (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Redeye is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (18 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.
