In 3 days ~10% in a week ~30%
Maiestas dorsalis is a species of bug from the Cicadellidae family that may be called the "zig-zag leafhopper" and is a rice pest. It can be found in India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Borneo island, Taiwan, and Henan, province of China. It was formerly placed within Recilia and much of the rice pest information is under R. dorsalis, but a 2009 revision moved it to Maiestas. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Zig-Zag Winged Rice Leafhopper sighting in Kochi on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 260th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February–May and July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Zig-Zag Winged Rice Leafhopper in Kochi on a given day, against under 5% in June and August–January, the lowest months.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Zig-Zag Winged Rice Leafhopper sightings, Kochi ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Nanchang (China, about 30%) and Hyderabad (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Zig-Zag Winged Rice Leafhopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Kochi (13 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.
