Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Dolichoderus scabridus sighting in Blue Mountains National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 554th most-seen of the 789 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.

Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Dolichoderus scabridus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Dolichoderus scabridus sightings, Blue Mountains National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Grampians National Park (Australia, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Dolichoderus scabridus is recorded against all the insects logged in Blue Mountains National Park (7 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
