Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tipula scripta sighting in Helsinki on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 553rd most-seen of the 838 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 and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Tipula scripta in Helsinki on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months.
Only Helsinki, in our data
Helsinki is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Tipula scripta sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Tipula
The closest relatives of the Tipula scripta that you can see in Helsinki (genus Tipula, Common Crane Flies) are Tipula fascipennis (about 10%) and European Crane Fly (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tipula scripta is recorded against all the insects logged in Helsinki (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.
