With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hemipepsis brunnea sighting in Jerusalem on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 94th most-seen of the 137 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Hemipepsis brunnea in Jerusalem on a given day, against under 5% in October to May, the lowest months. That is one of Jerusalem's driest months, with almost no rain against 90 mm in January.
Only Jerusalem, in our data
Jerusalem is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Hemipepsis brunnea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Hymenoptera

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hemipepsis brunnea is recorded against all the insects logged in Jerusalem (6 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.
