It is the 92nd most-seen of the 413 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.

Only Monterrey, in our data
Monterrey is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Spot-Celled Sister sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spot-Celled Sister is recorded against all the insects logged in Monterrey (37 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.
