Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Nisia nervosa sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 657th most-seen of the 1045 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.
December
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Nisia nervosa in Singapore on a given day, against under 5% in January to November, the lowest months. That is one of Singapore's wettest months, with about 300 mm of rain against 100 mm in February.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Nisia nervosa sightings, Singapore ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Tel Aviv (Israel, about 10%) and Kochi (India, under 5%).
Same order: Hemiptera
The closest relatives of the Nisia nervosa that you can see in Singapore (order Hemiptera, True Bugs, Hoppers, Aphids, and allies) are Orange Sharpshooter (about 20%), Cosmolestes picticeps (about 20%) and Giant Shield Bug (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Nisia nervosa is recorded against all the insects logged in Singapore (16 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.
