With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spider Cranefly sighting in Kathmandu on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 60th most-seen of the 71 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Spider Cranefly in Kathmandu on a given day, against under 5% in September and November–July, the lowest months. That is one of Kathmandu's wettest months, with about 240 mm of rain against almost none in November.
Yes
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Spider Cranefly sightings, Kathmandu has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Bangkok (Thailand, under 5%) and Singapore (Singapore, under 5%).
Same order: Diptera
The closest relatives of the Spider Cranefly that you can see in Kathmandu (order Diptera, Flies) are Bathroom Moth Fly (about 20%), Eristalis cerealis (about 20%) and Chironomus javanus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spider Cranefly is recorded against all the insects logged in Kathmandu (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.
