Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tree Termite sighting in Sydney on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 446th 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Tree Termite in Sydney on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Sydney, in our data
Sydney is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Tree Termite sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Blattodea
The closest relatives of the Tree Termite that you can see in Sydney (order Blattodea, Cockroaches and Termites) are American Cockroach (about 10%) and Austral Ellipsidion (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Tree Termite is recorded against all the insects logged in Sydney (12 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.
