Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Stripe-Winged Grasshopper sighting in London on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1394th 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 Stripe-Winged Grasshopper in London on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Stripe-Winged Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Stripe-Winged Grasshopper sightings, London ranks 4th at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Berlin (Germany, under 5%), Prague (Czechia, under 5%) and Vienna (Austria, under 5%).
Same family: Acrididae
The closest relatives of the Stripe-Winged Grasshopper that you can see in London (family Acrididae, Short-horned Grasshoppers) are Common Field Grasshopper (about 20%), Meadow Grasshopper (about 10%) and Lesser Marsh Grasshopper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Stripe-Winged Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in London (5 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.
