Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black Burrowing Bug sighting in Paris on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 561st most-seen of the 916 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.

16th of 17

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black Burrowing Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Paris (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.
