About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Cicindela batesi sighting in Taroko National Park on a given day, based on 58 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 24th most-seen of the 447 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.

Only Taroko National Park, in our data
Taroko National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cicindela batesi sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cicindela batesi is recorded against all the insects logged in Taroko National Park (58 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.
