It is the 89th 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.
July
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Japanese Drone Beetle in Hangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in August–September and November–May, the lowest months.
8th of 9
Of the 9 cities where we can rate Japanese Drone Beetle sightings, Hangzhou ranks 8th at about 10%. The best odds are in Chengdu (China, about 20%), Sendai (Japan, about 20%) and Nagoya (Japan, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Japanese Drone Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Hangzhou (8 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.
