Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hypomecis transcissa sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 522nd 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.
February and April–May

Of the 2 cities where we can rate Hypomecis transcissa sightings, Hong Kong 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 Hypomecis transcissa is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (16 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.
