With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Oedaleus infernalis sighting in Tokyo on a given day, based on 157 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 108th most-seen of the 1013 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Oedaleus infernalis in Tokyo on a given day, against under 5% in November to June, the lowest months.
5th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Oedaleus infernalis sightings, Tokyo ranks 5th at about 10%. The best odds are in Daegu (South Korea, about 20%), Sendai (Japan, about 20%) and Seoul (South Korea, about 10%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Oedaleus infernalis is recorded against all the insects logged in Tokyo (157 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.
