With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pidorus glaucopis sighting in Tokyo on a given day, based on 217 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 74th most-seen of the 1013 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and October
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Pidorus glaucopis in Tokyo on a given day, against under 5% in December to April, the lowest months. Those are among Tokyo's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain a month against 75 mm in February.
5th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Pidorus glaucopis sightings, Tokyo ranks 5th at about 10%. The best odds are in Nagoya (Japan, about 20%), Busan (South Korea, about 20%) and Fukuoka (Japan, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pidorus glaucopis is recorded against all the insects logged in Tokyo (217 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.
