With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Desmidophorus hebes sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 62 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 185th most-seen of the 1125 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.
June and July

The closest relatives of the Desmidophorus hebes that you can see in Hong Kong (order Coleoptera, Beetles) are Tricondyla pulchripes (about 20%), Six-Spotted Zigzag Ladybird (about 20%) and Cicindela juxtata (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Desmidophorus hebes is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (62 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.
