Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow Lily Weevil sighting in Lusaka on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 14th most-seen of the 72 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
November and December
In those months about 60% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow Lily Weevil in Lusaka on a given day, against under 5% in April to October, the lowest months. Those are among Lusaka's wettest months, with about 140 mm of rain a month against almost none in August.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Yellow Lily Weevil sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Lusaka, in our data
Lusaka is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Yellow Lily Weevil sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Coleoptera
The closest relatives of the Yellow Lily Weevil that you can see in Lusaka (order Coleoptera, Beetles) are Marmylida impressa (about 40%), Chlorocala africana (about 20%) and Boas Rhinoceros Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow Lily Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Lusaka (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.
