Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Sixspot Cranefly sighting in Paris on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 450th 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.
April and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Sixspot Cranefly in Paris on a given day, against under 5% in May–October and December–March, the lowest months.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Sixspot Cranefly sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
8th of 13
Of the 13 cities where we can rate Sixspot Cranefly sightings, Paris ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Helsinki (Finland, about 10%), Birmingham (United Kingdom, about 10%) and Manchester (United Kingdom, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Sixspot Cranefly is recorded against all the insects logged in Paris (16 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.
