Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Illeis confusa sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 18 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.
March and April
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Illeis confusa in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in May to February, the lowest months.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Illeis confusa sightings, Hong Kong ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kathmandu (Nepal, about 20%) and Tuen Mun (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Illeis confusa 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.
