Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rhagio tringaria sighting in Seattle on a given day, based on 29 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 158th 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.
June to August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Rhagio tringaria in Seattle on a given day, against under 5% in September to May, the lowest months. Those are among Seattle's driest months, with about 35 mm of rain a month against 190 mm in November.
Between 4 and 7 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rhagio tringaria sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
8th of 17
Of the 17 cities where we can rate Rhagio tringaria sightings, Seattle ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Helsinki (Finland, about 10%), Rotterdam [The Hague] (Netherlands, about 10%) and Vancouver (Canada, about 10%).
Same order: Diptera
The closest relatives of the Rhagio tringaria that you can see in Seattle (order Diptera, Flies) are Yellow-Haired Sun Fly (about 10%), Eurasian Drone Fly (about 10%) and Narcissus Bulb Fly (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rhagio tringaria is recorded against all the insects logged in Seattle (29 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.
