Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Cassida nebulosa sighting in Bucharest on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 303rd most-seen of the 361 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April–May and July–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cassida nebulosa in Bucharest on a given day, against under 5% in June and September–March, the lowest months.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cassida nebulosa sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Cassida nebulosa sightings, Bucharest ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Berlin (Germany, about 10%) and Vienna (Austria, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cassida nebulosa is recorded against all the insects logged in Bucharest (5 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.
