Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Sixteen-Spotted Lady Beetle 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 Sixteen-Spotted Lady Beetle 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.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Sixteen-Spotted Lady Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Sixteen-Spotted Lady Beetle sightings, Hong Kong ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Kathmandu (Nepal, about 20%), Bandung (Indonesia, about 10%) and Guangzhou (China, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Sixteen-Spotted Lady Beetle 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.
