Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Chilocorus rubidus sighting in Beijing on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 321st 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 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chilocorus rubidus in Beijing on a given day, against under 5% in February to December, the lowest months. That is one of Beijing's driest months, with almost no rain against 150 mm in July.
Only Beijing, in our data
Beijing is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Chilocorus rubidus sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Coccinellidae
The closest relatives of the Chilocorus rubidus that you can see in Beijing (family Coccinellidae, Lady Beetles) are Asian Lady Beetle (about 30%), Seven-Spotted Lady Beetle (about 10%) and Poplar Ladybird Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chilocorus rubidus is recorded against all the insects logged in Beijing (6 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.
