Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Metaemene atrigutta sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 555th 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, June, August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Metaemene atrigutta in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in April–May, July, September and November–February, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Metaemene atrigutta sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Metaemene atrigutta sightings, Hong Kong ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Taipei (Taiwan, about 10%), Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Singapore (Singapore, under 5%).
Same family: Noctuidae
The closest relatives of the Metaemene atrigutta that you can see in Hong Kong (family Noctuidae, Cutworm Moths and Allies) are Flammona trilineata (about 10%), Oriental Leafworm Moth (about 10%) and Cerynea discontenta (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Metaemene atrigutta is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (15 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.
