Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Idaea filicata sighting in Istanbul on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 234th most-seen of the 266 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.
May and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Idaea filicata in Istanbul on a given day, against under 5% in June–September and November–April, the lowest months.
Between midnight and 3 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Idaea filicata sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
3rd of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Idaea filicata sightings, Istanbul ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Lyon (France, about 10%) and Budapest (Hungary, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Idaea filicata is recorded against all the insects logged in Istanbul (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.
