About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Heteracris pulchra sighting in Hyderabad on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 243rd most-seen of the 318 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.

Same family: Acrididae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Heteracris pulchra is recorded against all the insects logged in Hyderabad (6 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.
