With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spathosternum prasiniferum sighting in Kolkata on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 152nd most-seen of the 213 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.
April, June–August and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spathosternum prasiniferum in Kolkata on a given day, against under 5% in May, September–October and December–March, the lowest months. Those are among Kolkata's wettest months, with about 190 mm of rain a month against 10 mm in December.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spathosternum prasiniferum sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
11th of 14
Of the 14 cities where we can rate Spathosternum prasiniferum sightings, Kolkata ranks 11th at about 10%. The best odds are in Vadodara (India, about 20%), Prayagraj (India, about 20%) and Colombo [Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte] (Sri Lanka, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spathosternum prasiniferum is recorded against all the insects logged in Kolkata (8 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.
