With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Ruspolia lineosa sighting in Hangzhou on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 76th 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.
August
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Ruspolia lineosa in Hangzhou on a given day, against under 5% in October to June, the lowest months. That is one of Hangzhou's wettest months, with about 180 mm of rain against 65 mm in December.
Among the best
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Ruspolia lineosa sightings, Hangzhou ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Sendai (Japan, about 10%).
Same family: Tettigoniidae
The closest relatives of the Ruspolia lineosa that you can see in Hangzhou (family Tettigoniidae, Katydids) are Black-Kneed Meadow Katydid (about 10%), Ducetia japonica (about 10%) and Tegra novaehollandiae (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ruspolia lineosa is recorded against all the insects logged in Hangzhou (10 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.
