Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Coptops lichenea sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 522nd 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.
May–June and September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Coptops lichenea in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in July–August and October–April, the lowest months. Those are among Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in December.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Coptops lichenea is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (16 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.
