Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Monochamus saltuarius sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 268th 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.
May and June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Monochamus saltuarius in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in July to April, the lowest months.
Only Seoul, in our data
Seoul is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Monochamus saltuarius sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Cerambycidae
The closest relatives of the Monochamus saltuarius that you can see in Seoul (family Cerambycidae, Longhorn Beetles) are Thin-Winged Longicorn Beetle (about 10%), Oak Longicorn Beetle (about 10%) and Citrus Longhorn Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Monochamus saltuarius is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (10 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.
