Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Phytomia zonata sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 386th 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 and October–January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Phytomia zonata in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in February and April–September, the lowest months. Those are among Hong Kong's driest months, with about 40 mm of rain a month against 280 mm in June.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Phytomia zonata sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
16th of 19
Of the 19 cities where we can rate Phytomia zonata sightings, Hong Kong ranks 16th at under 5%. The best odds are in Hefei (China, about 20%), Nanchang (China, about 20%) and Dalian (China, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Phytomia zonata is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (23 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.
