Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Ptecticus japonicus sighting in Beijing on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 162nd 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.
July and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Ptecticus japonicus in Beijing on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months. Those are among Beijing's wettest months, with about 130 mm of rain a month against almost none in January.
Yes
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Ptecticus japonicus sightings, Beijing has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Shanghai (China, under 5%) and Tokyo (Japan, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ptecticus japonicus is recorded against all the insects logged in Beijing (16 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.
