Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Dysbiota peregrina sighting in Auckland on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 338th most-seen of the 689 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.
January, March and October–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Dysbiota peregrina in Auckland on a given day, against under 5% in February, April–September and December, the lowest months.
Only Auckland, in our data
Auckland is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Dysbiota peregrina sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Stratiomyidae
The closest relatives of the Dysbiota peregrina that you can see in Auckland (family Stratiomyidae, Soldier Flies) are Garden Soldier Fly (about 20%), Black Soldier Fly (about 10%) and Benhamyia apicalis (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Dysbiota peregrina is recorded against all the insects logged in Auckland (15 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.
