In 3 days ~20% in a week ~30%
Ctenolepisma ciliatum is a species of silverfish of the order Zygentoma. Described from Spain, it is a common species in subarid habitats of the Mediterranean bassin from Portugal to Western Asia. It is very close to C. longicaudatum. Its dorsal pattern is usually uniformly brownish or greyish with iridescences, or with two or four longitudinal fringes along the abdomen. Anatomic/morphologic differences with related species involve microscopic characters as setation or shape and distribution of scales. Wikipedia →

With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Ctenolepisma ciliata sighting in Athens on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 198th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ctenolepisma ciliata is recorded against all the insects logged in Athens (6 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.
