Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Macronota shangaicus sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 868th 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 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Macronota shangaicus in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months. That is one of Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 280 mm of rain against 25 mm in December.
7th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Macronota shangaicus sightings, Hong Kong ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Taichung (Taiwan, about 10%), Fuzhou (China, about 10%) and Kaohsiung (Taiwan, about 10%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Macronota shangaicus that you can see in Hong Kong (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Euselates magna (about 10%), Anomala russiventris (about 10%) and Oriental Flower Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Macronota shangaicus is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (7 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.
