Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Green-Winged Cicada sighting in Houston on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 905th most-seen of the 1057 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Green-Winged Cicada in Houston on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Houston, in our data
Houston is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Green-Winged Cicada sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Cicadidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green-Winged Cicada is recorded against all the insects logged in Houston (7 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.
