Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Paddyfield Parasol sighting in Kanha National Park on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 33rd most-seen of the 106 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March, May and October–December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Paddyfield Parasol in Kanha National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April and June–September, the lowest months. Those are among Kanha National Park's driest months, with about 25 mm of rain a month against 430 mm in July.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Paddyfield Parasol sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Paddyfield Parasol sightings, Kanha National Park ranks 3rd at about 20%. The best odds are in Namdapha National Park (India, about 30%) and Khao Yai National Park (Thailand, about 30%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Paddyfield Parasol is recorded against all the insects logged in Kanha National Park (15 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
