Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Spotted Red Spittle Bug sighting in Cape Town on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 231st most-seen of the 311 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 Spotted Red Spittle Bug in Cape Town on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spotted Red Spittle Bug sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Spotted Red Spittle Bug sightings, Cape Town ranks 3rd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Pretoria (South Africa, under 5%) and Johannesburg (South Africa, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spotted Red Spittle Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Cape Town (8 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.
