With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Maritime Grasshopper sighting in Osaka on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 197th most-seen of the 352 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.
August to November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Maritime Grasshopper in Osaka on a given day, against under 5% in December to July, the lowest months.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Maritime Grasshopper sightings, Osaka ranks 4th at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Tokyo (Japan, about 10%), Sendai (Japan, about 10%) and Athens (Greece, about 10%).
Same family: Acrididae
The closest relatives of the Maritime Grasshopper that you can see in Osaka (family Acrididae, Short-horned Grasshoppers) are Oriental Longheaded Locust (about 20%), Slender Green-Winged Grasshopper (about 20%) and Patanga japonica (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Maritime Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Osaka (10 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.
