With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Balkan Subterranean Termite sighting in Athens on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 137th most-seen of the 242 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January–March, May–July and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Balkan Subterranean Termite in Athens on a given day, against under 5% in April, August–October and December, the lowest months.
Only Athens, in our data
Athens is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Balkan Subterranean Termite sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Blattodea
The closest relatives of the Balkan Subterranean Termite that you can see in Athens (order Blattodea, Cockroaches and Termites) are American Cockroach (about 20%), Yellownecked Dry-Wood Termite (about 10%) and Lobe-Winged Cockroach (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Balkan Subterranean Termite is recorded against all the insects logged in Athens (7 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.
