Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Fruitspotting Bug sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 27 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 276th 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 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Fruitspotting Bug is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (27 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.
