With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Carinate Locust sighting in Kaohsiung on a given day, based on 17 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 100th most-seen of the 218 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
September
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Carinate Locust in Kaohsiung on a given day, against under 5% in March–April and November–January, the lowest months. That is one of Kaohsiung's wettest months, with about 240 mm of rain against 25 mm in February.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Carinate Locust sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
29th of 38
Of the 38 cities where we can rate Carinate Locust sightings, Kaohsiung ranks 29th at about 10%. The best odds are in Xiuying District (China, about 50%), Tiruchirappalli (India, about 30%) and Johor Bahru (Malaysia, about 30%).
Same family: Acrididae
The closest relatives of the Carinate Locust that you can see in Kaohsiung (family Acrididae, Short-horned Grasshoppers) are Short-Winged Rice Grasshopper (about 20%) and Large Green Grasshopper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Carinate Locust is recorded against all the insects logged in Kaohsiung (17 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.
