With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tropidothorax cruciger sighting in Seoul on a given day, based on 22 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 143rd most-seen of the 525 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March and May–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tropidothorax cruciger in Seoul on a given day, against under 5% in April and September–February, the lowest months. Those are among Seoul's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 20 mm in January.
Only Seoul, in our data
Seoul is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Tropidothorax cruciger sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tropidothorax cruciger is recorded against all the insects logged in Seoul (22 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.
