Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Fasciolata Skipper sighting in Santiago on a given day, based on 70 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 12th most-seen of the 173 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Fasciolata Skipper in Santiago on a given day, against under 5% in July, the lowest month. That is one of Santiago's driest months, with about 10 mm of rain against 65 mm in June.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Fasciolata Skipper sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Santiago, in our data
Santiago is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Fasciolata Skipper sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Fasciolata Skipper is recorded against all the insects logged in Santiago (70 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.
