Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Asaphidion semilucidum sighting in Beijing on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 184th most-seen of the 401 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March–April and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Asaphidion semilucidum in Beijing on a given day, against under 5% in May–October and December–February, the lowest months. Those are among Beijing's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 150 mm in July.
Only Beijing, in our data
Beijing is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Asaphidion semilucidum sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Carabidae
The closest relatives of the Asaphidion semilucidum that you can see in Beijing (family Carabidae, Ground Beetles) are Carabus brandti (about 10%), Harpalus pallidipennis (about 10%) and Diplocheila zeelandica (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Asaphidion semilucidum is recorded against all the insects logged in Beijing (13 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.
