Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Philippine Mormon sighting in Manila on a given day, based on 39 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 19th most-seen of the 122 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and August
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Philippine Mormon in Manila on a given day, against under 5% in February, the lowest month.
Only Manila, in our data
Manila is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Philippine Mormon sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Papilio
The closest relatives of the Philippine Mormon that you can see in Manila (genus Papilio, Common Swallowtails) are Lime Swallowtail (about 40%) and Scarlet Mormon Swallowtail (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Philippine Mormon is recorded against all the insects logged in Manila (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.
