Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Striped Earwig sighting in Izmir on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 20th 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.
January to March
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Striped Earwig in Izmir on a given day, against under 5% in April, June–October and December, the lowest months. Those are among Izmir's wettest months, with about 95 mm of rain a month against almost none in July.
Only Izmir, in our data
Izmir is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Striped Earwig sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Striped Earwig is recorded against all the insects logged in Izmir (10 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.
