Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tawny-Barred Angle sighting in Moscow on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 992nd most-seen of the 1111 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 Tawny-Barred Angle in Moscow on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 10 pm and 1 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Tawny-Barred Angle sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Among the best
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Tawny-Barred Angle sightings, Moscow ranks 5th at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Berlin (Germany, under 5%), Essen (Germany, under 5%) and Helsinki (Finland, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tawny-Barred Angle is recorded against all the insects logged in Moscow (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.
