Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Longnosed Kauri Weevil sighting in Auckland on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 618th most-seen of the 689 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Longnosed Kauri Weevil in Auckland on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Longnosed Kauri Weevil sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Auckland, in our data
Auckland is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Longnosed Kauri Weevil sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Curculionidae
The closest relatives of the Longnosed Kauri Weevil that you can see in Auckland (family Curculionidae, True Weevils) are Fuller's Rose Weevil (about 10%), White-Fringed Weevil (about 10%) and Cleonus confessus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Longnosed Kauri Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Auckland (5 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.
