Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a False Ladybird sighting in Berlin on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 869th most-seen of the 1065 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and March
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a False Ladybird in Berlin on a given day, against under 5% in February and April–December, the lowest months.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most False Ladybird sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 9
Of the 9 cities where we can rate False Ladybird sightings, Berlin ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Warsaw (Poland, about 10%), Kyiv (Ukraine, under 5%) and Helsinki (Finland, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the False Ladybird is recorded against all the insects logged in Berlin (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.
