Stromatium auratum
In 3 days ~20% in a week ~30%
Stromatium fulvum is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was first described by Charles Joseph Devillers in 1789, and while his name was preoccupied, it is treated as valid following ICZN Article 23.9.5; it has most commonly been referred to as Stromatium unicolor, and more recently as Stromatium auratum but these names are junior synonyms.

With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Stromatium auratum sighting in Tel Aviv on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 195th most-seen of the 264 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Stromatium auratum in Tel Aviv on a given day, against under 5% in September to May, the lowest months. That is one of Tel Aviv's driest months, with almost no rain against 90 mm in January.
Only Tel Aviv, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Stromatium auratum is recorded against all the insects logged in Tel Aviv (7 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.
