Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Acrolepia pygmaeana sighting in London on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1300th most-seen of the 1504 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.
October
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Acrolepia pygmaeana in London on a given day, against under 5% in November to September, the lowest months.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Acrolepia pygmaeana sightings, London ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Liverpool (United Kingdom, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Acrolepia pygmaeana is recorded against all the insects logged in London (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.
