With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Lemyra imparilis sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 217 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 49th most-seen of the 765 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lemyra imparilis is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (217 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.
