Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Welsh Chafer sighting in Porto on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 457th most-seen of the 498 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Welsh Chafer in Porto on a given day, against under 5% in June to March, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Welsh Chafer sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Welsh Chafer sightings, Porto ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Liverpool (United Kingdom, about 20%), Birmingham (United Kingdom, about 20%) and Manchester (United Kingdom, about 10%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Welsh Chafer that you can see in Porto (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Mediterranean Spotted Chafer (about 10%), Phyllognathus excavatus (about 10%) and Speckled Rose Chafer (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Welsh Chafer is recorded against all the insects logged in Porto (6 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.
