Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lypha dubia sighting in London on a given day, based on 13 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1005th 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.
March and April
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Lypha dubia in London on a given day, against under 5% in May to February, the lowest months.
Only London, in our data
London is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Lypha dubia sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Tachinidae
The closest relatives of the Lypha dubia that you can see in London (family Tachinidae, Tachinid Flies) are Red Spotted Parasite Fly (about 10%), Common Tachinid (about 10%) and Phania funesta (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lypha dubia is recorded against all the insects logged in London (13 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.
