Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Gold Grasshopper sighting in Prague on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 647th most-seen of the 724 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Gold Grasshopper in Prague on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Gold Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
7th of 8
Of the 8 cities where we can rate Gold Grasshopper sightings, Prague ranks 7th at under 5%. The best odds are in Helsinki (Finland, about 10%), Warsaw (Poland, under 5%) and Hamburg (Germany, under 5%).
Same family: Acrididae
The closest relatives of the Gold Grasshopper that you can see in Prague (family Acrididae, Short-horned Grasshoppers) are Blue-Winged Grasshopper (about 10%), Meadow Grasshopper (about 10%) and Common Field Grasshopper (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Gold Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Prague (5 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.
