Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Heptophylla picea sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 214th 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.
June–July and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Heptophylla picea in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in August–October and December–May, the lowest months. Those are among Seoul's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 20 mm in January.
Yes
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Heptophylla picea sightings, Seoul has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Osaka (Japan, under 5%) and Tokyo (Japan, under 5%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Heptophylla picea that you can see in Seoul (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Oriental Beetle (about 20%), Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle (about 10%) and Japanese Drone Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Heptophylla picea is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (16 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.
