Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Common Gesonula 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, September and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Gesonula in Kochi on a given day, against under 5% in January–June, August and October–November, the lowest months.
Between 4 and 7 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Gesonula sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
8th of 8
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Common Gesonula sightings, Kochi ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Tasikmalaya (Indonesia, about 20%), Yogyakarta (Indonesia, about 10%) and Bandung (Indonesia, about 10%).
Same family: Acrididae
The closest relatives of the Common Gesonula that you can see in Kochi (family Acrididae, Short-horned Grasshoppers) are Rufous-Legged Grasshopper (about 10%), Spathosternum prasiniferum (about 10%) and Chitaura indica (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Gesonula 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.
