Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hypothyris ninonia sighting in Rio de Janeiro on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 119th most-seen of the 169 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 May–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hypothyris ninonia in Rio de Janeiro on a given day, against under 5% in March–April and September–January, the lowest months. Those are among Rio de Janeiro's driest months, with about 70 mm of rain a month against 230 mm in December.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hypothyris ninonia sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Hypothyris ninonia sightings, Rio de Janeiro ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in São Paulo (Brazil, about 10%) and Campinas (Brazil, about 10%).
Same family: Nymphalidae
The closest relatives of the Hypothyris ninonia that you can see in Rio de Janeiro (family Nymphalidae, Brush-footed Butterflies) are White Peacock (about 30%), Gulf Fritillary (about 10%) and Ruddy Daggerwing (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hypothyris ninonia is recorded against all the insects logged in Rio de Janeiro (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.
