With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Forest Chaser sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 150 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 104th most-seen of the 765 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July to September
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Forest Chaser in Taipei on a given day, against under 5% in November to May, the lowest months. Those are among Taipei's wettest months, with about 230 mm of rain a month against 90 mm in February.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Forest Chaser sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Forest Chaser sightings, Taipei has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Guangzhou (China, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Forest Chaser is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (150 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.
