Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Timarcha lusitanica sighting in Lisbon on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 256th 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.
November and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Timarcha lusitanica in Lisbon on a given day, against under 5% in January to October, the lowest months. Those are among Lisbon's wettest months, with about 80 mm of rain a month against almost none in July.
Only Lisbon, in our data
Lisbon is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Timarcha lusitanica sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Chrysomelidae
The closest relatives of the Timarcha lusitanica that you can see in Lisbon (family Chrysomelidae, Leaf Beetles) are Bronze Beetle (about 10%), Rosemary Beetle (about 10%) and Cryptocephalus rugicollis (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Timarcha lusitanica is recorded against all the insects logged in Lisbon (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.
