Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Steppe Grasshopper sighting in Novosibirsk on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 190th most-seen of the 216 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July to September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Steppe Grasshopper in Novosibirsk on a given day, against under 5% in October to June, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Steppe Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 10
Of the 10 cities where we can rate Steppe Grasshopper sightings, Novosibirsk ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Warsaw (Poland, about 10%), Cologne (Germany, about 10%) and Vienna (Austria, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Steppe Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Novosibirsk (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.
