Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tea Mosquito Bug sighting in Kochi on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 377th most-seen of the 428 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.
April, September and December–January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tea Mosquito Bug in Kochi on a given day, against under 5% in February–March, May–August and October–November, the lowest months. Those are among Kochi's driest months, with about 120 mm of rain a month against 490 mm in June.

Of the 5 cities where we can rate Tea Mosquito Bug sightings, Kochi ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 10%), Hong Kong (China, about 10%) and Singapore (Singapore, about 10%).
Same order: Hemiptera
The closest relatives of the Tea Mosquito Bug that you can see in Kochi (order Hemiptera, True Bugs, Hoppers, Aphids, and allies) are Kalidasa lanata (about 10%), Phymatostetha deschampsi (about 10%) and Black Planthopper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tea Mosquito Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Kochi (5 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.
