Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black-Kneed Capsid sighting in Stockholm on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 144th most-seen of the 202 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Black-Kneed Capsid in Stockholm on a given day, against under 5% in September and November–July, the lowest months.
2nd of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Black-Kneed Capsid sightings, Stockholm ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Helsinki (Finland, about 10%).
Same family: Miridae
The closest relatives of the Black-Kneed Capsid that you can see in Stockholm (family Miridae, Plant Bugs) are Closterotomus biclavatus (about 10%), Grass Bug (about 10%) and Streaked Plant Bug (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black-Kneed Capsid is recorded against all the insects logged in Stockholm (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.
