Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Isle Of Wight Wave sighting in Prague on a given day, based on 6 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 an Isle Of Wight Wave in Prague on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Isle Of Wight Wave sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Prague, in our data
Prague is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Isle Of Wight Wave sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Idaea
The closest relatives of the Isle Of Wight Wave that you can see in Prague (genus Idaea) are Small Dusty Wave (about 10%), Riband Wave (about 10%) and Least Carpet (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Isle Of Wight Wave is recorded against all the insects logged in Prague (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.
