With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Anthaxia nitidula sighting in Bucharest on a given day, based on 25 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 60th most-seen of the 361 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and May
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report an Anthaxia nitidula in Bucharest on a given day, against under 5% in July to March, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Anthaxia nitidula sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 12 cities where we can rate Anthaxia nitidula sightings, Bucharest has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Kharkiv (Ukraine, about 10%) and Vienna (Austria, about 10%).
Same genus: Anthaxia
The closest relatives of the Anthaxia nitidula that you can see in Bucharest (genus Anthaxia) are Anthaxia bicolor (about 10%), Anthaxia cichorii (about 10%) and Anthaxia anatolica (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Anthaxia nitidula is recorded against all the insects logged in Bucharest (25 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.
