It is the 145th most-seen of the 172 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.

Same family: Lucanidae
The closest relatives of the Aegus laevicollis that you can see in Hangzhou (family Lucanidae, Stag Beetles) are Titan Stag Beetle (about 20%), Epidorcus gracilis (about 10%) and Hope's Stag Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Aegus laevicollis is recorded against all the insects logged in Hangzhou (5 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.
