Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Antheraea formosana sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 27 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 298th most-seen of the 765 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April–June and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Antheraea formosana in Taipei on a given day, against under 5% in July–September and November–March, the lowest months.
Only Taipei, in our data
Taipei is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Antheraea formosana sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Saturniidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Antheraea formosana is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (27 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.
