With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Oecetis ochracea sighting in Liverpool on a given day, based on 14 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 375th most-seen of the 632 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May to August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Oecetis ochracea in Liverpool on a given day, against under 5% in September to April, the lowest months.
Between 4 and 7 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Oecetis ochracea sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
Only Liverpool, in our data
Liverpool is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Oecetis ochracea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Leptoceridae
The closest relatives of the Oecetis ochracea that you can see in Liverpool (family Leptoceridae, Long-horned Caddisflies) are Grousewing Caddisfly (about 20%) and Leptocerus tineiformis (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Oecetis ochracea is recorded against all the insects logged in Liverpool (14 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.
