Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail sighting in Osaka on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 214th most-seen of the 352 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.
July to September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Flangetail in Osaka on a given day, against under 5% in October to June, the lowest months. Those are among Osaka's wettest months, with about 180 mm of rain a month against 55 mm in January.
Between 7 and 10 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Flangetail sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
8th of 10
Of the 10 cities where we can rate Common Flangetail sightings, Osaka ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 20%), Naha (Japan, about 10%) and Changsha (China, about 10%).
Same family: Gomphidae
The closest relatives of the Common Flangetail that you can see in Osaka (family Gomphidae, Clubtails) are Melligomphus viridicostus (about 10%), Sieboldius albardae (about 10%) and Golden Flangetail (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Flangetail is recorded against all the insects logged in Osaka (9 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.
