Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Ferny Acacia Cicada sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 54 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 183rd most-seen of the 742 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.
October to December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Ferny Acacia Cicada in Sydney on a given day, against under 5% in January to September, the lowest months.
Only Sydney, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ferny Acacia Cicada is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (54 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.
