Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Red-Shouldered Leaf Beetle sighting in San Diego on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 632nd most-seen of the 693 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Red-Shouldered Leaf Beetle in San Diego on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Red-Shouldered Leaf Beetle 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 San Diego, in our data
San Diego is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Red-Shouldered Leaf Beetle sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Red-Shouldered Leaf Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in San Diego (5 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.
