Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Mimegralla splendens sighting in Mumbai on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 334th most-seen of the 362 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Mimegralla splendens in Mumbai on a given day, against under 5% in April and June–February, the lowest months. Those are among Mumbai's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 830 mm in July.
5th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Mimegralla splendens sightings, Mumbai ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Kochi (India, about 10%), Chennai (India, about 10%) and Colombo [Sri Jayawardenepura Kotte] (Sri Lanka, about 10%).
Same order: Diptera
The closest relatives of the Mimegralla splendens that you can see in Mumbai (order Diptera, Flies) are Black Soldier Fly (about 10%), Yellow-Shouldered Hover Fly (about 10%) and Chrysosoma leucopogon (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Mimegralla splendens is recorded against all the insects logged in Mumbai (6 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.
