With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an East African Slender-Stingless Bee sighting in Nairobi on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 82nd 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 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and October
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report an East African Slender-Stingless Bee in Nairobi on a given day, against under 5% in May–June, September and November–February, the lowest months. Those are among Nairobi's wettest months, with about 120 mm of rain a month against 25 mm in July.
Only Nairobi, in our data
Nairobi is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate East African Slender-Stingless Bee sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Apidae
The closest relatives of the East African Slender-Stingless Bee that you can see in Nairobi (family Apidae, Honey Bees, Bumble Bees, and Allies) are Double-Banded Carpenter Bee (about 10%) and Big Red Large Carpenter Bee (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the East African Slender-Stingless Bee is recorded against all the insects logged in Nairobi (6 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.
