Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Glaucias amyota sighting in Auckland on a given day, based on 195 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 25th most-seen of the 689 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
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Glaucias amyota in Auckland on a given day, against about 10% in April–September and November, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Glaucias amyota sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Auckland, in our data
Auckland is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Glaucias amyota sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Pentatomidae
The closest relatives of the Glaucias amyota that you can see in Auckland (family Pentatomidae, Stink Bugs) are Southern Green Stink Bug (about 20%), Brown Shield Bug (about 10%) and Brown Soldier Bug (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Glaucias amyota is recorded against all the insects logged in Auckland (195 verified sightings), 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.
