Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hypopyra meridionalis sighting in Pune on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 261st most-seen of the 340 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.
February and September–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hypopyra meridionalis in Pune on a given day, against under 5% in March–August and December–January, the lowest months.
Only Pune, in our data
Pune is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Hypopyra meridionalis sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Hypopyra meridionalis that you can see in Pune (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Footman Moth (about 10%), Handmaiden Moth (about 10%) and Sandalwood Defoliator (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hypopyra meridionalis is recorded against all the insects logged in Pune (7 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.
