With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Broken-Backed Bug sighting in Puebla on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 97th most-seen of the 118 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June, August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Broken-Backed Bug in Puebla on a given day, against under 5% in July, September and November–May, the lowest months. Those are among Puebla's wettest months, with about 130 mm of rain a month against 10 mm in December.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Broken-Backed Bug sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 26 cities where we can rate Broken-Backed Bug sightings, Puebla ranks 3rd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Algiers (Algeria, about 10%) and Tel Aviv (Israel, about 10%).
Same order: Hemiptera
The closest relatives of the Broken-Backed Bug that you can see in Puebla (order Hemiptera, True Bugs, Hoppers, Aphids, and allies) are Oleander Aphid (about 10%), Acanthocephala alata (about 10%) and Stenomacra marginella (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Broken-Backed Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Puebla (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.
