Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Silver-Green Leaf Weevil sighting in London on a given day, based on 8 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Silver-Green Leaf Weevil in London on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Silver-Green Leaf Weevil sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Silver-Green Leaf Weevil sightings, London ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Helsinki (Finland, about 10%), Berlin (Germany, under 5%) and Copenhagen (Denmark, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Silver-Green Leaf Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in London (8 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.
