Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Green Long-Legged Fly sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 44 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 200th 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.
February–April and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Green Long-Legged Fly in Sydney on a given day, against under 5% in January and May–November, the lowest months.

Of the 3 cities where we can rate Green Long-Legged Fly sightings, Sydney ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Perth (Australia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green Long-Legged Fly is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (44 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.
