With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Winged Plant Hopper sighting in Osaka on a given day, based on 68 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 34th most-seen of the 352 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.
June–July and September–October
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Brown Winged Plant Hopper in Osaka on a given day, against under 5% in February–May and December, the lowest months. Those are among Osaka's wettest months, with about 190 mm of rain a month against 55 mm in January.
4th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Brown Winged Plant Hopper sightings, Osaka ranks 4th at about 10%. The best odds are in Nagoya (Japan, about 30%), Tokyo (Japan, about 30%) and Istanbul (Turkey, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Brown Winged Plant Hopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Osaka (68 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.
