Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Thyrassia subcordata sighting in Mumbai on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 258th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and July–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Thyrassia subcordata in Mumbai on a given day, against under 5% in June and September–April, the lowest months. Those are among Mumbai's wettest months, with about 490 mm of rain a month against almost none in January.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Thyrassia subcordata sightings, Mumbai ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Prayagraj (India, about 10%), Kochi (India, about 10%) and Kolkata (India, about 10%).
Same order: Lepidoptera
The closest relatives of the Thyrassia subcordata that you can see in Mumbai (order Lepidoptera, Butterflies and Moths) are Common Mormon Swallowtail (about 40%), Tailed Jay (about 40%) and Lime Swallowtail (about 40%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Thyrassia subcordata is recorded against all the insects logged in Mumbai (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.
