About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Silver Princess sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 770 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 6th most-seen of the 742 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 50%, and over a week to about 80%, if each day is a fresh chance.

In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Silver Princess in Sydney on a given day, against under 5% in March to July, the lowest months.

Of the 2 cities where we can rate Silver Princess sightings, Sydney has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Melbourne (Australia, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Silver Princess is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (770 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.
