Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black Webspinner sighting in Miami on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 752nd most-seen of the 826 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black Webspinner in Miami on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Black Webspinner sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
12th of 12
Of the 12 cities where we can rate Black Webspinner sightings, Miami ranks 12th at under 5%. The best odds are in Jerusalem (Israel, about 10%), Tel Aviv (Israel, about 10%) and Mesa (United States, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black Webspinner is recorded against all the insects logged in Miami (5 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.
