Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Verge Cricket sighting in Lyon on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 318th most-seen of the 411 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March, June and August–October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Verge Cricket in Lyon on a given day, against under 5% in April–May, July and November–February, the lowest months.
Between 3 and 6 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Verge Cricket sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 8
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Verge Cricket sightings, Lyon ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Vienna (Austria, about 10%).
Same order: Orthoptera
The closest relatives of the Verge Cricket that you can see in Lyon (order Orthoptera, Grasshoppers, Crickets, and Katydids) are Great Green Bush-Cricket (about 20%), Mediterranean Katydid (about 20%) and Egyptian Bird Grasshopper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Verge Cricket is recorded against all the insects logged in Lyon (6 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.
