Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Plum Beetle sighting in Toronto on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1212th most-seen of the 1689 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Plum Beetle in Toronto on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Plum Beetle sightings, Toronto ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in London (United Kingdom, under 5%) and Vienna (Austria, under 5%).
Same family: Cerambycidae
The closest relatives of the Plum Beetle that you can see in Toronto (family Cerambycidae, Longhorn Beetles) are Red Milkweed Beetle (about 10%), Locust Borer (about 10%) and Banded Longhorn Beetle (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Plum Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Toronto (8 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.
