Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Heptophylla picea sighting in Osaka on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 229th 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.
June to August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Heptophylla picea in Osaka on a given day, against under 5% in September to May, the lowest months. Those are among Osaka's wettest months, with about 180 mm of rain a month against 55 mm in January.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Heptophylla picea sightings, Osaka ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Seoul (South Korea, under 5%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Heptophylla picea is recorded against all the insects logged in Osaka (8 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.
