With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Phimenes arcuatus sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 47 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 258th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January to July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Phimenes arcuatus in Brisbane on a given day, against under 5% in August to December, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Phimenes arcuatus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 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 Phimenes arcuatus sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Eumenidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Phimenes arcuatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (47 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.
