Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Mango Flower Beetle sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 30 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 258th most-seen of the 742 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.
April and November–December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Mango Flower Beetle in Sydney on a given day, against under 5% in January–March and May–October, the lowest months.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Mango Flower Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
6th of 8
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Mango Flower Beetle sightings, Sydney ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Yogyakarta (Indonesia, about 20%), Manila (Philippines, about 10%) and Brisbane (Australia, about 10%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Mango Flower Beetle that you can see in Sydney (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Argentinian Scarab (about 20%), Fiddler Beetle (about 10%) and Cowboy Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Mango Flower Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (30 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.
