Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Anarsia patulella sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 960th most-seen of the 1045 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Anarsia patulella in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Anarsia patulella sightings, Singapore ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Hong Kong (China, under 5%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Anarsia patulella is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (5 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.
