With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Plesiomorpha flaviceps sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 25 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 362nd 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–April and June–September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Plesiomorpha flaviceps in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in May and October–February, the lowest months. Those are among Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in December.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Plesiomorpha flaviceps is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (25 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.
