With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Camponotus chrysurus sighting in Lusaka on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 46th most-seen of the 72 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March–April and August
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Camponotus chrysurus in Lusaka on a given day, against under 5% in May–July, September and November–January, the lowest months.
Only Lusaka, in our data
Lusaka is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Camponotus chrysurus sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Camponotus
The closest relatives of the Camponotus chrysurus that you can see in Lusaka (genus Camponotus, Carpenter Ants, Typical Sugar Ants and Allies) are Dr Brauns's Sugar Ant (about 20%) and Northern Hairy Sugar Ant (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Camponotus chrysurus is recorded against all the insects logged in Lusaka (12 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.
