With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a White-Spotted Stink Bug sighting in Istanbul on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 190th 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.
June–July and September–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a White-Spotted Stink Bug in Istanbul on a given day, against under 5% in August and December–May, the lowest months.
Among the best
Of the 10 cities where we can rate White-Spotted Stink Bug sightings, Istanbul ranks 5th at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Dubai (United Arab Emirates, about 10%), Bucharest (Romania, about 10%) and Hangzhou (China, about 10%).
Same family: Pentatomidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the White-Spotted Stink Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Istanbul (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.
