With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Delta conoideum sighting in Mumbai on a given day, based on 21 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 147th most-seen of the 362 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.
September and November–July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Delta conoideum in Mumbai on a given day, against under 5% in August and October, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Delta conoideum sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Delta conoideum sightings, Mumbai ranks 7th at about 10%. The best odds are in Hajipur (India, about 50%), Jamshedpur (India, about 30%) and Hyderabad (India, about 10%).
Same genus: Delta
The closest relatives of the Delta conoideum that you can see in Mumbai (genus Delta) are Delta pyriforme (about 10%) and Okinawa Mud Wasp (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Delta conoideum is recorded against all the insects logged in Mumbai (21 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.
