Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Prionyx kirbii sighting in Barcelona on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 249th most-seen of the 381 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.
August to October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Prionyx kirbii in Barcelona on a given day, against under 5% in November to July, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Prionyx kirbii sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Prionyx kirbii sightings, Barcelona ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Algiers (Algeria, about 10%) and Cologne (Germany, under 5%).
Same family: Sphecidae
The closest relatives of the Prionyx kirbii that you can see in Barcelona (family Sphecidae, Thread-waisted Wasps) are Asian Mud-Dauber Wasp (about 10%), Yellow-Legged Mud-Dauber Wasp (about 10%) and Sceliphron spirifex (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Prionyx kirbii is recorded against all the insects logged in Barcelona (12 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.
