Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Oak Leafhopper sighting in Berlin on a given day, based on 17 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 694th 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.
May and June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Oak Leafhopper in Berlin on a given day, against under 5% in July to April, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Oak Leafhopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.

Same family: Cicadellidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Oak Leafhopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Berlin (17 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.
