With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Italian Festoon sighting in Rome on a given day, based on 26 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 69th most-seen of the 289 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and April
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Italian Festoon in Rome on a given day, against under 5% in June to February, the lowest months.
Only Rome, in our data
Rome is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Italian Festoon sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Papilionidae
The closest relatives of the Italian Festoon that you can see in Rome (family Papilionidae, Swallowtails and Parnassians) are Scarce Swallowtail (about 20%) and Old World Swallowtail (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Italian Festoon is recorded against all the insects logged in Rome (26 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.
