It is the 465th 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.

Among the best
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Psychoda sigma sightings, Melbourne ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Auckland (New Zealand, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Psychoda sigma is recorded against all the insects logged in Melbourne (19 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.
