Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a White-Spotted Longicorn Beetle sighting in Naha on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 41st most-seen of the 94 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a White-Spotted Longicorn Beetle in Naha on a given day, against under 5% in August to March, the lowest months. That is one of Naha's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain against 60 mm in February.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most White-Spotted Longicorn Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the White-Spotted Longicorn Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Naha (10 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.
