With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Plain Nawab sighting in Jakarta on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 116th most-seen of the 239 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Plain Nawab in Jakarta on a given day, against under 5% in April–May and October–December, the lowest months. That is one of Jakarta's wettest months, with about 340 mm of rain against 55 mm in August.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Plain Nawab sightings, Jakarta ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Singapore (Singapore, about 10%).
Same family: Nymphalidae
The closest relatives of the Plain Nawab that you can see in Jakarta (family Nymphalidae, Brush-footed Butterflies) are Great Eggfly (about 50%), Brown Pansy (about 40%) and Blue Pansy (about 30%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Plain Nawab is recorded against all the insects logged in Jakarta (12 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.
