Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Common Marauding Katydid sighting in Perth on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 227th most-seen of the 275 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.
November
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Marauding Katydid in Perth on a given day, against under 5% in December to October, the lowest months. That is one of Perth's driest months, with about 25 mm of rain against 130 mm in July.
Only Perth, in our data
Perth is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Common Marauding Katydid sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Tettigoniidae
The closest relatives of the Common Marauding Katydid that you can see in Perth (family Tettigoniidae, Katydids) are Requena verticalis (about 10%), Kings Park Stick Katydid (about 10%) and Tympanophora andreae (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Marauding Katydid is recorded against all the insects logged in Perth (6 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.
