Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Ocypus nitens sighting in Toronto on a given day, based on 65 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 300th most-seen of the 1689 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.
April and May
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Ocypus nitens in Toronto on a given day, against under 5% in June to March, the lowest months.
4th of 6
Of the 6 cities where we can rate Ocypus nitens sightings, Toronto ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Kyiv (Ukraine, about 10%), Montreal (Canada, under 5%) and Boston (United States, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ocypus nitens is recorded against all the insects logged in Toronto (65 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.
