Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Floridasura tricolor sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 385th 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.
March and June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Floridasura tricolor in Taipei on a given day, against under 5% in April–May and July–February, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Floridasura tricolor sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Taipei, in our data
Taipei is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Floridasura tricolor sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Floridasura tricolor that you can see in Taipei (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Asota heliconia (about 20%), Chrysaeglia magnifica (about 20%) and Banyan Tussock Moth (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Floridasura tricolor is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (19 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.
