Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Heldreich's Dwarf Mantis sighting in Izmir on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 17th most-seen of the 50 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and September
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Heldreich's Dwarf Mantis in Izmir on a given day, against under 5% in January–April, August and October–November, the lowest months. Those are among Izmir's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 130 mm in January.
Among the best
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Heldreich's Dwarf Mantis sightings, Izmir ranks 2nd at about 20%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Jerusalem (Israel, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Heldreich's Dwarf Mantis is recorded against all the insects logged in Izmir (11 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.
