Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Megarrhamphus truncatus sighting in Taipei on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 455th most-seen of the 765 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 to August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Megarrhamphus truncatus in Taipei on a given day, against under 5% in September to May, the lowest months. Those are among Taipei's wettest months, with about 230 mm of rain a month against 90 mm in February.
Only Taipei, in our data
Taipei is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Megarrhamphus truncatus sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Pentatomidae
The closest relatives of the Megarrhamphus truncatus that you can see in Taipei (family Pentatomidae, Stink Bugs) are Yellow-Spotted Stink Bug (about 30%) and Brown Marmorated Stink Bug (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Megarrhamphus truncatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Taipei (13 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.
