Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Aphthona strigosa sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 17 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 555th most-seen of the 1125 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March–April and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Aphthona strigosa in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in May–September and November–February, the lowest months.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Aphthona strigosa sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Hong Kong, in our data
Hong Kong is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Aphthona strigosa sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Chrysomelidae
The closest relatives of the Aphthona strigosa that you can see in Hong Kong (family Chrysomelidae, Leaf Beetles) are Podontia lutea (about 10%), Furcated Tortoise Beetle (about 10%) and Abirus fortuneii (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Aphthona strigosa is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (17 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.
