Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Scripted Long-Horned Beetle sighting in Vancouver on a given day, based on 19 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 231st most-seen of the 482 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Scripted Long-Horned Beetle in Vancouver on a given day, against under 5% in June to April, the lowest months. That is one of Vancouver's driest months, with about 60 mm of rain against 210 mm in November.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Scripted Long-Horned Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Scripted Long-Horned Beetle sightings, Vancouver ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Portland (United States, under 5%) and Seattle (United States, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Scripted Long-Horned Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Vancouver (19 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.
