Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lebia viridis sighting in Montreal on a given day, based on 22 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 335th most-seen of the 926 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lebia viridis in Montreal on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Lebia viridis 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.
Among the best
Of the 11 cities where we can rate Lebia viridis sightings, Montreal ranks 5th at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Dallas (United States, under 5%), Boston (United States, under 5%) and Austin (United States, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lebia viridis is recorded against all the insects logged in Montreal (22 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.
