Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Chiasmia emersaria sighting in Kochi on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 335th most-seen of the 428 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July–August and October–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chiasmia emersaria in Kochi on a given day, against under 5% in September and December–June, the lowest months. Those are among Kochi's wettest months, with about 330 mm of rain a month against 15 mm in January.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chiasmia emersaria sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
16th of 19
Of the 19 cities where we can rate Chiasmia emersaria sightings, Kochi ranks 16th at under 5%. The best odds are in Jamshedpur (India, about 30%), Dhaka (Bangladesh, about 20%) and Jabalpur (India, about 20%).
Same family: Geometridae
The closest relatives of the Chiasmia emersaria that you can see in Kochi (family Geometridae, Geometer Moths) are Blue Tiger Moth (about 10%), Black Looper (about 10%) and Tea Looper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chiasmia emersaria is recorded against all the insects logged in Kochi (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.
