Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Man-Faced Stink Bug sighting in Mumbai on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 314th most-seen of the 362 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 Man-Faced Stink Bug in Mumbai on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months. That is one of Mumbai's wettest months, with about 540 mm of rain against almost none in January.
4th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Man-Faced Stink Bug sightings, Mumbai ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Yangon (Myanmar, about 20%), Pune (India, about 10%) and Bengaluru (India, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Man-Faced Stink Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Mumbai (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.
