Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Spathosternum prasiniferum 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.
May, July and October

Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spathosternum prasiniferum sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spathosternum prasiniferum 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.
