In 3 days ~10% in a week ~20%
Calosoma maximowiczi is a species of ground beetle in the subfamily of Carabinae. It was described by August Morawitz in 1863. It is native to Japan, China, Russia, Taiwan, and Korea. Unlike most species in this family, this beetle can fly. Adults feed on butterfly and moth larvae and are observed in midsummer in trees of broadleaf forests in mountainous places. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Calosoma maximowiczi sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 460th 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 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Calosoma maximowiczi in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in June–July and September–April, the lowest months. Those are among Seoul's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 20 mm in January.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Calosoma maximowiczi sightings, Seoul ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Nanjing (China, about 10%) and Osaka (Japan, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Calosoma maximowiczi is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (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.
