Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Chequered Snout sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 847th most-seen of the 1045 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Chequered Snout in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chequered Snout sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
6th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Chequered Snout sightings, Singapore ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Chennai (India, about 10%), Kochi (India, about 10%) and Bengaluru (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chequered Snout is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (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.
