Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Wattle Tick Scale sighting in Brisbane on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 856th 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 Wattle Tick Scale in Brisbane on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Wattle Tick Scale sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Wattle Tick Scale sightings, Brisbane ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Melbourne (Australia, about 10%), Sydney (Australia, under 5%) and Perth (Australia, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Wattle Tick Scale is recorded against all the insects logged in Brisbane (7 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.
