Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Red Chilocorus sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 680th most-seen of the 1083 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Red Chilocorus in Brisbane on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Red Chilocorus sightings, Brisbane ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, under 5%).
Same family: Coccinellidae
The closest relatives of the Red Chilocorus that you can see in Brisbane (family Coccinellidae, Lady Beetles) are Variable Ladybird Beetle (about 30%), Striped Ladybird (about 20%) and Hadda Beetle (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red Chilocorus is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (11 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.
