Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tropical Paper Wasp sighting in Singapore on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 602nd 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tropical Paper Wasp in Singapore on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Tropical Paper Wasp sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
11th of 11
Of the 11 cities where we can rate Tropical Paper Wasp sightings, Singapore ranks 11th at under 5%. The best odds are in Raipur (India, about 20%), Tuen Mun (China, about 10%) and Mumbai (India, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tropical Paper Wasp 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.
