Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Bicolored Plushback sighting in Orlando on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 266th most-seen of the 294 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February and March
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Bicolored Plushback in Orlando on a given day, against under 5% in April to January, the lowest months. Those are among Orlando's driest months, with about 65 mm of rain a month against 210 mm in June.
Among the best
Of the 7 cities where we can rate Bicolored Plushback sightings, Orlando ranks 4th at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Miami (United States, under 5%), Austin (United States, under 5%) and Bogota (Colombia, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Bicolored Plushback is recorded against all the insects logged in Orlando (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.
