Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Ringed Tortoise Beetle sighting in Belo Horizonte on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 121st most-seen of the 186 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.
January, April, July–August and October–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Ringed Tortoise Beetle in Belo Horizonte on a given day, against under 5% in February–March, May–June, September and December, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Ringed Tortoise Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Belo Horizonte, in our data
Belo Horizonte is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Ringed Tortoise Beetle sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ringed Tortoise Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Belo Horizonte (7 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.
