With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Phyteumas purpurascens sighting in Nairobi on a given day, based on 14 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 28th most-seen of the 123 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April, July and December–February
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Phyteumas purpurascens in Nairobi on a given day, against under 5% in March, August and October–November, the lowest months.
Only Nairobi, in our data
Nairobi is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Phyteumas purpurascens sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Phyteumas purpurascens is recorded against all the insects logged in Nairobi (14 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.
