With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Leptomyrmex rufipes sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 81 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 181st most-seen of the 1083 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
December to October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Leptomyrmex rufipes in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in November, the lowest month.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Leptomyrmex rufipes sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Leptomyrmex rufipes sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Leptomyrmex rufipes is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (81 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.
