Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rice Root Aphid sighting in Berlin on a given day, based on 10 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rice Root Aphid in Berlin on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rice Root Aphid sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
12th of 19
Of the 19 cities where we can rate Rice Root Aphid sightings, Berlin ranks 12th at under 5%. The best odds are in Budapest (Hungary, about 10%), Turin (Italy, about 10%) and Detroit (United States, about 10%).
Same family: Aphididae
The closest relatives of the Rice Root Aphid that you can see in Berlin (family Aphididae, Aphids) are Lime Leaf Aphid (about 10%) and Poplar Spiral Gall Aphid (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rice Root Aphid is recorded against all the insects logged in Berlin (10 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.
