With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pittosporum Leaf-Gall Fly sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 425 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 60th most-seen of the 742 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pittosporum Leaf-Gall Fly in Sydney on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pittosporum Leaf-Gall Fly is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (425 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.
