Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Opatrum sabulosum sighting in Berlin on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 949th 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 an Opatrum sabulosum 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.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Opatrum sabulosum sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 7
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Opatrum sabulosum sightings, Berlin ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Kyiv (Ukraine, about 10%), Kharkiv (Ukraine, about 10%) and Novosibirsk (Russia, about 10%).
Same family: Tenebrionidae
The closest relatives of the Opatrum sabulosum that you can see in Berlin (family Tenebrionidae, Darkling Beetles) are Sulphur Beetle (about 20%) and Diaperis boleti (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Opatrum sabulosum is recorded against all the insects logged in Berlin (5 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.
