With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Eophileurus chinensis sighting in Hangzhou on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 107th 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 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May to August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Eophileurus chinensis in Hangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in September to April, the lowest months. Those are among Hangzhou's wettest months, with about 180 mm of rain a month against 65 mm in December.
9th of 12
Of the 12 cities where we can rate Eophileurus chinensis sightings, Hangzhou ranks 9th at about 10%. The best odds are in Hefei (China, about 20%), Jinan (China, about 20%) and Nanjing (China, about 10%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Eophileurus chinensis that you can see in Hangzhou (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Adam's Stag-Horned Beetle (about 20%), Trichogomphus mongol (about 20%) and Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Eophileurus chinensis is recorded against all the insects logged in Hangzhou (7 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.
