Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hemipenthes velutina sighting in Lisbon on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 405th most-seen of the 441 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hemipenthes velutina in Lisbon on a given day, against under 5% in July to May, the lowest months. That is one of Lisbon's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain against 95 mm in November.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hemipenthes velutina sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Hemipenthes velutina sightings, Lisbon ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Athens (Greece, about 10%), Barcelona (Spain, about 10%) and Budapest (Hungary, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hemipenthes velutina is recorded against all the insects logged in Lisbon (5 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.
