With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Greek Spoonwing 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.
May
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Greek Spoonwing in Athens on a given day, against under 5% in July to April, the lowest months. That is one of Athens's driest months, with about 20 mm of rain against 85 mm in December.
Only Athens, in our data
Athens is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Greek Spoonwing sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Greek Spoonwing 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.
