Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hypericum Pot Beetle sighting in Munich on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 219th most-seen of the 521 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hypericum Pot Beetle in Munich on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months. Those are among Munich's wettest months, with about 140 mm of rain a month against 60 mm in February.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hypericum Pot Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Hypericum Pot Beetle sightings, Munich ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Hamburg (Germany, about 10%).
Same family: Chrysomelidae
The closest relatives of the Hypericum Pot Beetle that you can see in Munich (family Chrysomelidae, Leaf Beetles) are Willow Clytra (about 10%), Four Spotted Leaf Beetle (about 10%) and Colorado Potato Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hypericum Pot Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Munich (13 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.
