Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Striped Bush Hopper sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 21 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 396th 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.
May to July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Striped Bush Hopper in Taipei on a given day, against under 5% in August to April, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Striped Bush Hopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: 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 Striped Bush Hopper sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Striped Bush Hopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (21 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.
