With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Camponotus lateralis sighting in Naples on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 42nd most-seen of the 73 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March–April and July
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Camponotus lateralis in Naples on a given day, against under 5% in June and August–February, the lowest months.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Camponotus lateralis is recorded against all the insects logged in Naples (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.
