Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Kaempfer Cicada sighting in Tokyo on a given day, based on 726 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 24th most-seen of the 1013 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Kaempfer Cicada in Tokyo on a given day, against under 5% in October to May, the lowest months.
Among the best
Of the 17 cities where we can rate Kaempfer Cicada sightings, Tokyo ranks 3rd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Nagoya (Japan, about 20%) and Jinan (China, about 20%).
Same family: Cicadidae
The closest relatives of the Kaempfer Cicada that you can see in Tokyo (family Cicadidae, Typical Cicadas) are Large Brown Cicada (about 30%), Robust Cicada (about 20%) and Black Giant Cicada (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Kaempfer Cicada is recorded against all the insects logged in Tokyo (726 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.
