Stenolemus lanipes is a species of thread-legged bug (Emesinae). This species feeds on spiders, especially spiderlings of Parasteatoda tepidariorum. Stenolemus lanipes will not feed upon other insects (such as Drosophila) placed upon a web, even to the point of starvation. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Stenolemus lanipes sighting in Los Angeles on a given day, based on 23 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 399th most-seen of the 851 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 Stenolemus lanipes in Los Angeles on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Los Angeles, in our data
Los Angeles is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Stenolemus lanipes sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Stenolemus lanipes is recorded against all the insects logged in Los Angeles (23 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.
