Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Polypedilum nubifer 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.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Polypedilum nubifer in Beijing on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months. That is one of Beijing's wettest months, with about 85 mm of rain against almost none in January.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Polypedilum nubifer sightings, Beijing ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Perth (Australia, under 5%).
Same order: Diptera
The closest relatives of the Polypedilum nubifer that you can see in Beijing (order Diptera, Flies) are Common Drone Fly (about 10%), Phytomia zonata (about 10%) and Marmalade Hover Fly (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Polypedilum nubifer 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.
