About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Ameles picteti sighting in Madrid on a given day, based on 18 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 191st most-seen of the 457 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.
February, April–June and December

Only Madrid, in our data
Madrid is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Ameles picteti sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ameles picteti is recorded against all the insects logged in Madrid (18 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.
