Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Fan-Shaped Fire-Colored Beetle sighting in Chicago on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 814th most-seen of the 978 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Fan-Shaped Fire-Colored Beetle in Chicago on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Fan-Shaped Fire-Colored Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Chicago, in our data
Chicago is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Fan-Shaped Fire-Colored 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 Fan-Shaped Fire-Colored Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Chicago (6 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.
