With luck

It is the 67th most-seen of the 213 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and June
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Black-Kneed Featherleg in Kolkata on a given day, against under 5% in April–May, August and December, the lowest months.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black-Kneed Featherleg is recorded against all the insects logged in Kolkata (39 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.
