Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Leptocoris vicinus sighting in Tainan on a given day, based on 24 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 16th most-seen of the 97 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 and April
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Leptocoris vicinus in Tainan on a given day, against under 5% in July to January, the lowest months. Those are among Tainan's driest months, with about 65 mm of rain a month against 440 mm in August.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Leptocoris vicinus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Leptocoris vicinus sightings, Tainan ranks 2nd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Taichung (Taiwan, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Leptocoris vicinus is recorded against all the insects logged in Tainan (24 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.
