Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Myriochila specularis sighting in Shanghai on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 185th most-seen of the 215 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Myriochila specularis in Shanghai on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months. Those are among Shanghai's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 55 mm in December.
Yes
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Myriochila specularis sightings, Shanghai has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Seoul (South Korea, under 5%) and Tokyo (Japan, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Myriochila specularis is recorded against all the insects logged in Shanghai (5 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.
