Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Bright-White Masked Bee sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 601st most-seen of the 1083 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.
September
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Bright-White Masked Bee in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in October to August, the lowest months. That is one of Brisbane's driest months, with about 40 mm of rain against 160 mm in February.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Bright-White Masked Bee sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Bright-White Masked Bee is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (15 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.
