With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Dorycera judea sighting in Jerusalem on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 66th 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 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Dorycera judea in Jerusalem on a given day, against under 5% in May to February, the lowest months.
Only Jerusalem, in our data
Jerusalem is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Dorycera judea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Diptera
The closest relatives of the Dorycera judea that you can see in Jerusalem (order Diptera, Flies) are Stripe-Eyed Lagoon Fly (about 30%), Migrant Hover Fly (about 20%) and Blue Blowfly (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Dorycera judea is recorded against all the insects logged in Jerusalem (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.
