Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Myrmecomimesis nigricans sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 914th 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Myrmecomimesis nigricans in Brisbane on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Brisbane, in our data
Brisbane is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Myrmecomimesis nigricans sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Hymenoptera

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Myrmecomimesis nigricans is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (6 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.
