Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Aglaomorpha histrio sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 226th most-seen of the 525 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 and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Aglaomorpha histrio in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months. Those are among Seoul's wettest months, with about 310 mm of rain a month against 20 mm in January.
Only Seoul, in our data
Seoul is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Aglaomorpha histrio sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Aglaomorpha histrio that you can see in Seoul (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Fall Webworm Moth (about 20%), Spongy Moth (about 10%) and Kidokuga piperita (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Aglaomorpha histrio is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (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.
