Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Red-Spot Jezebel sighting in Kathmandu on a given day, based on 39 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 6th most-seen of the 71 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November
In that month about 70% of wildlife watchers report a Red-Spot Jezebel in Kathmandu on a given day, against under 5% in February to June, the lowest months. That is one of Kathmandu's driest months, with almost no rain against 280 mm in July.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Red-Spot Jezebel sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Red-Spot Jezebel sightings, Kathmandu has the highest daily chance: about 30%. Next come Guwahati (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red-Spot Jezebel is recorded against all the insects logged in Kathmandu (39 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.
