With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Clanger sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 216 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 78th most-seen of the 1083 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
December
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Clanger in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in March to October, the lowest months. That is one of Brisbane's wettest months, with about 130 mm of rain against 40 mm in July.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Clanger sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Clanger is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (216 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.
