Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Fodina kosemponis sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1005th 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 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Fodina kosemponis in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in May to March, the lowest months.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Fodina kosemponis sightings, Hong Kong ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Taipei (Taiwan, about 10%).
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Fodina kosemponis that you can see in Hong Kong (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Banyan Tussock Moth (about 20%), Orvasca subnotata (about 20%) and Zhejiang Tussock Moth (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Fodina kosemponis is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (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.
