Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rhinotia suturalis sighting in Perth on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 143rd most-seen of the 275 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.
November to February
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Rhinotia suturalis in Perth on a given day, against under 5% in March to October, the lowest months. Those are among Perth's driest months, with about 20 mm of rain a month against 130 mm in July.
Between 4 and 7 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rhinotia suturalis sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Perth, in our data
Perth is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Rhinotia suturalis sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Coleoptera
The closest relatives of the Rhinotia suturalis that you can see in Perth (order Coleoptera, Beetles) are Large Spotted Ladybird (about 20%), Small Transverse Ladybird Beetle (about 20%) and Six-Spotted Zigzag Ladybird (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rhinotia suturalis is recorded against all the insects logged in Perth (12 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.
