Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Common Psednura sighting in Melbourne on a given day, based on 32 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 312th most-seen of the 875 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.
May
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Psednura in Melbourne on a given day, against under 5% in June to April, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Psednura sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Melbourne, in our data
Melbourne is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Common Psednura sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Orthoptera
The closest relatives of the Common Psednura that you can see in Melbourne (order Orthoptera, Grasshoppers, Crickets, and Katydids) are Wingless Grasshopper (about 10%), Australian Black Field Cricket (about 10%) and Giant Green Slantface (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Psednura is recorded against all the insects logged in Melbourne (32 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.
