With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Speckled Black Cicada sighting in Guangzhou on a given day, based on 44 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 61st most-seen of the 482 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and April
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Speckled Black Cicada in Guangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in June to February, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Speckled Black Cicada sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

Of the 4 cities where we can rate Speckled Black Cicada sightings, Guangzhou ranks 4th at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Hong Kong (China, about 10%), Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Zhuhai [Macau] (China, about 10%).
Same family: Cicadidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Speckled Black Cicada is recorded against all the insects logged in Guangzhou (44 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.
