Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Delicate Apple Capsid sighting in Seattle on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 295th most-seen of the 428 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.
September
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Delicate Apple Capsid in Seattle on a given day, against under 5% in October to August, the lowest months. That is one of Seattle's driest months, with about 60 mm of rain against 190 mm in November.
4th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Delicate Apple Capsid sightings, Seattle ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Hamburg (Germany, about 10%), Berlin (Germany, under 5%) and Paris (France, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Delicate Apple Capsid is recorded against all the insects logged in Seattle (9 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.
