With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Calosoma olivieri sighting in Jerusalem on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 74th most-seen of the 137 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February–March, May, July and November

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Calosoma olivieri is recorded against all the insects logged in Jerusalem (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.
