In 3 days ~30% in a week ~50%
Oriens gola, the common dartlet, is a butterfly of the family Hesperiidae. It is found from Sri Lanka and India (Kumaon, Sikkim, Assam) to Burma, Thailand, Vietnam, Peninsular Malaysia, Borneo and Sumatra. The wingspan is about 22–27 mm. The ground colour of the wings is dark brown. There are yellowish-orange or amber-colored discal bands on both the forewings and hindwings, defined by black shading on the underside. The veins within the bands are not darkened. The verso resemmbles the recto but the yellow is more extensive.
The larvae feed on Imperata and Paspalum species, as well as Ottochloa nodosa. Wikipedia →

With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Dartlet sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 285 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 111th most-seen of the 1045 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Dartlet in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Common Dartlet sightings, Singapore has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Dartlet is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (285 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.
