With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Kaempfer Cicada sighting in Chengdu on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 14th most-seen of the 26 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Kaempfer Cicada in Chengdu on a given day, against under 5% in May–June, September and November–March, the lowest months. That is one of Chengdu's wettest months, with about 260 mm of rain against 10 mm in January.
5th of 17
Of the 17 cities where we can rate Kaempfer Cicada sightings, Chengdu ranks 5th at about 10%. The best odds are in Nagoya (Japan, about 20%), Jinan (China, about 20%) and Tokyo (Japan, about 20%).
Same family: Cicadidae
The closest relatives of the Kaempfer Cicada that you can see in Chengdu (family Cicadidae, Typical Cicadas) are Eastern Horse Cicada (about 30%) and Cryptotympana mandarina (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Kaempfer Cicada is recorded against all the insects logged in Chengdu (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.
