Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a WA Slender Stick Insect sighting in Perth on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 206th 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.
January and February
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a WA Slender Stick Insect in Perth on a given day, against under 5% in March to December, the lowest months. Those are among Perth's driest months, with about 20 mm of rain a month against 130 mm in July.
Only Perth, in our data
Perth is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate WA Slender Stick Insect sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the WA Slender Stick Insect is recorded against all the insects logged in Perth (7 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.
