Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Neurothemis taiwanensis sighting in Taroko National Park on a given day, based on 45 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 35th most-seen of the 447 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.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Neurothemis taiwanensis sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Taroko National Park, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Neurothemis taiwanensis is recorded against all the insects logged in Taroko National Park (45 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.
