With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chrysis lincea sighting in Nairobi on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 99th most-seen of the 123 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Chrysis lincea in Nairobi on a given day, against under 5% in March–May, August and October–January, the lowest months. That is one of Nairobi's driest months, with about 30 mm of rain against 150 mm in April.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chrysis lincea sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Chrysis lincea sightings, Nairobi has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Pretoria (South Africa, under 5%).
Same order: Hymenoptera
The closest relatives of the Chrysis lincea that you can see in Nairobi (order Hymenoptera, Ants, Bees, Wasps, and Sawflies) are Double-Banded Carpenter Bee (about 10%), Big Red Large Carpenter Bee (about 10%) and Echthromorpha agrestoria (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chrysis lincea is recorded against all the insects logged in Nairobi (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.
