Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Common Parasol sighting in Taman Negara National Park on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 16th most-seen of the 84 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.
January and November
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Common Parasol in Taman Negara National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March–April, August, October and December, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common 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.
8th of 12
Of the 12 parks where we can rate Common Parasol sightings, Taman Negara National Park ranks 8th at about 20%. The best odds are in Way Kambas National Park (Indonesia, about 50%), Bako National Park (Malaysia, about 40%) and Khao Sok National Park (Thailand, about 40%). All parks ranked.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Parasol is recorded against all the insects logged in Taman Negara National 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.
