With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Streaked Plant Bug sighting in Stockholm on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 85th most-seen of the 202 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Streaked Plant Bug in Stockholm on a given day, against under 5% in July to April, the lowest months.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Streaked Plant Bug sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 14 cities where we can rate Streaked Plant Bug sightings, Stockholm ranks 3rd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Vienna (Austria, about 10%) and Budapest (Hungary, about 10%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Streaked Plant Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Stockholm (10 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.
