With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Oak Longicorn Beetle sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 50 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 54th most-seen of the 525 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report an Oak Longicorn Beetle in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in July–September and November–February, the lowest months.
Only Seoul, in our data
Seoul is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Oak Longicorn Beetle sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Cerambycidae
The closest relatives of the Oak Longicorn Beetle that you can see in Seoul (family Cerambycidae, Longhorn Beetles) are Thin-Winged Longicorn Beetle (about 10%), Citrus Longhorn Beetle (about 10%) and Agapanthia amurensis (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Oak Longicorn Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (50 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.
