Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Heptophylla picea sighting in Tokyo on a given day, based on 41 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 290th most-seen of the 1013 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Heptophylla picea in Tokyo on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Heptophylla picea sightings, Tokyo ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Seoul (South Korea, under 5%) and Osaka (Japan, under 5%).
Same family: Scarabaeidae
The closest relatives of the Heptophylla picea that you can see in Tokyo (family Scarabaeidae, Scarabs) are Green Chafer (about 20%), Japanese Rhinoceros Beetle (about 10%) and Japanese Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Heptophylla picea is recorded against all the insects logged in Tokyo (41 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.
