Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Leptocoris vicinus sighting in Taichung on a given day, based on 57 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 15th most-seen of the 197 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.

In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Leptocoris vicinus in Taichung on a given day, against under 5% in July, the lowest month.

Yes
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Leptocoris vicinus sightings, Taichung has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Tainan (Taiwan, about 20%) and Taipei (Taiwan, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Leptocoris vicinus is recorded against all the insects logged in Taichung (57 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.
