With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Microstylum dux sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 35 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 288th most-seen of the 1125 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May to July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Microstylum dux in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in August to April, the lowest months. Those are among Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 230 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in December.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Microstylum dux is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (35 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.
