With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Coastal Groundbug sighting in Madrid on a given day, based on 18 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 186th most-seen of the 457 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Coastal Groundbug in Madrid on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months. Those are among Madrid's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain a month against 65 mm in October.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Coastal Groundbug sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
6th of 13
Of the 13 cities where we can rate Coastal Groundbug sightings, Madrid ranks 6th at about 10%. The best odds are in Bucharest (Romania, about 20%), Lyon (France, about 10%) and Budapest (Hungary, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Coastal Groundbug 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.
