Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Euagoras plagiatus sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 891st 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 Euagoras plagiatus in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Euagoras plagiatus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Euagoras plagiatus sightings, Singapore ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 10%), Guangzhou (China, under 5%) and Hong Kong (China, under 5%).
Same family: Reduviidae
The closest relatives of the Euagoras plagiatus that you can see in Singapore (family Reduviidae, Assassin Bugs) are Cosmolestes picticeps (about 20%), Inara flavopicta (about 10%) and Velinus nigrigenu (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Euagoras plagiatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (6 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.
