Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Spruce Zebra Beetle sighting in Calgary on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 203rd most-seen of the 256 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.
July
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spruce Zebra Beetle in Calgary on a given day, against under 5% in August to June, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spruce Zebra Beetle 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.
Among the best
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Spruce Zebra Beetle sightings, Calgary ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Edmonton (Canada, under 5%) and Portland (United States, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spruce Zebra Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Calgary (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.
