With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Penthimia nigra sighting in Berlin on a given day, based on 24 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 337th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February, April–May and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Penthimia nigra in Berlin on a given day, against under 5% in March, June–September and November–January, the lowest months.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Penthimia nigra sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 9 cities where we can rate Penthimia nigra sightings, Berlin ranks 6th at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Lyon (France, about 10%), Vienna (Austria, about 10%) and Warsaw (Poland, about 10%).
Same family: Cicadellidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Penthimia nigra is recorded against all the insects logged in Berlin (24 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.
