With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pear Lace Bug sighting in Paris on a given day, based on 38 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 219th most-seen of the 916 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April–May and July–September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pear Lace Bug in Paris on a given day, against under 5% in June and October–March, the lowest months.
Among the best
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Pear Lace Bug sightings, Paris ranks 3rd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Bucharest (Romania, about 10%) and Belgrade (Serbia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pear Lace Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Paris (38 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.
