With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pomponia rajah sighting in Kinabalu Park on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 95th most-seen of the 297 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Pomponia rajah in Kinabalu Park on a given day, against under 5% in May and August–January, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Pomponia rajah sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Kinabalu Park, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pomponia rajah is recorded against all the insects logged in Kinabalu Park (12 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.
