Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Paddyfield Parasol 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.
March–April and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Paddyfield Parasol in Pune on a given day, against under 5% in January–February and May–November, the lowest months. Those are among Pune's driest months, with almost no rain against 520 mm in July.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Paddyfield Parasol sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Paddyfield Parasol sightings, Pune ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Bangkok (Thailand, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Paddyfield Parasol 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.
