Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Novius rufopilosus sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 731st 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Novius rufopilosus in Hong Kong on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Novius rufopilosus sightings, Hong Kong ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Novius rufopilosus is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (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.
