With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cocoa Branch Borer sighting in Kochi on a given day, based on 28 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 150th most-seen of the 428 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.
January
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Cocoa Branch Borer in Kochi on a given day, against under 5% in July and August, the lowest months. That is one of Kochi's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain against 490 mm in June.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cocoa Branch Borer sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
3rd of 8
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Cocoa Branch Borer sightings, Kochi ranks 3rd at about 10%. The best odds are in Jamshedpur (India, about 30%) and Thiruvananthapuram (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cocoa Branch Borer is recorded against all the insects logged in Kochi (28 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.
