About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Diesbachia sophiae sighting in Kinabalu Park on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 70th most-seen of the 297 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Diesbachia sophiae is recorded against all the insects logged in Kinabalu Park (16 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.
