Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Xenostrongylus variegatus sighting in Beijing on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 260th 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.
April and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Xenostrongylus variegatus in Beijing on a given day, against under 5% in May–July and September–March, the lowest months. Those are among Beijing's wettest months, with about 65 mm of rain a month against almost none in January.
Only Beijing, in our data
Beijing is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Xenostrongylus variegatus sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Coleoptera
The closest relatives of the Xenostrongylus variegatus that you can see in Beijing (order Coleoptera, Beetles) are Asian Lady Beetle (about 30%), Carabus brandti (about 10%) and Eucryptorrhynchus scrobiculatus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Xenostrongylus variegatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Beijing (9 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.
