Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Macronota shangaicus sighting in Guangzhou on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 294th most-seen of the 482 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.
May and June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Macronota shangaicus in Guangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in July to April, the lowest months. Those are among Guangzhou's wettest months, with about 300 mm of rain a month against 30 mm in December.
6th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Macronota shangaicus sightings, Guangzhou ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Taichung (Taiwan, about 10%), Fuzhou (China, about 10%) and Kaohsiung (Taiwan, about 10%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Macronota shangaicus that you can see in Guangzhou (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Euselates magna (about 10%), Oriental Flower Beetle (about 10%) and Siamese Rhinoceros Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Macronota shangaicus is recorded against all the insects logged in Guangzhou (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.
