Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Margarinotus purpurascens sighting in Berlin on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 745th 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.
April
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Margarinotus purpurascens in Berlin on a given day, against under 5% in May to March, the lowest months. That is one of Berlin's driest months, with about 30 mm of rain against 80 mm in July.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Margarinotus purpurascens sightings, Berlin ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Kyiv (Ukraine, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Margarinotus purpurascens is recorded against all the insects logged in Berlin (8 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.
