Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a White Commodore sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 22 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 344th 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, May, July and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a White Commodore in Taipei on a given day, against under 5% in January–February, April, June and August–November, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most White Commodore sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 cities where we can rate White Commodore sightings, Taipei ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Hong Kong (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the White Commodore is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (22 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.
