Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tolumnia latipes sighting in Hong Kong on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 778th 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 and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tolumnia latipes in Hong Kong on a given day, against under 5% in July–September and November–May, the lowest months. Those are among Hong Kong's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in December.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Tolumnia latipes sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Tolumnia latipes sightings, Hong Kong ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, under 5%) and Taipei (Taiwan, under 5%).
Same family: Pentatomidae
The closest relatives of the Tolumnia latipes that you can see in Hong Kong (family Pentatomidae, Stink Bugs) are Yellow-Spotted Stink Bug (about 10%) and Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tolumnia latipes is recorded against all the insects logged in Hong Kong (9 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.
