Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Parapolybia varia 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.
April, June–July and September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Parapolybia varia in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in May, August and October–March, the lowest months. Those are among Seoul's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 20 mm in January.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Parapolybia varia sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 8
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Parapolybia varia sightings, Seoul ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Tuen Mun (China, about 10%), Guangzhou (China, about 10%) and Nanjing (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Parapolybia varia 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.
