Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Regal Pond Cruiser sighting in Tokyo on a given day, based on 48 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 275th 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.
May to July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Regal Pond Cruiser in Tokyo on a given day, against under 5% in August to April, the lowest months.
5th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Regal Pond Cruiser sightings, Tokyo ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Beijing (China, about 10%), Nanjing (China, about 10%) and Shanghai (China, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Regal Pond Cruiser is recorded against all the insects logged in Tokyo (48 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.
