Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Cleorina janthina sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 703rd 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 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 Cleorina janthina in Taipei on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Taipei, in our data
Taipei is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cleorina janthina sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cleorina janthina is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (5 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.
