Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Stem Miner Weevil sighting in Vancouver on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 314th most-seen of the 482 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 Stem Miner Weevil in Vancouver on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Among the best
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Stem Miner Weevil sightings, Vancouver ranks 2nd at under 5%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in London (United Kingdom, under 5%).
Same family: Curculionidae
The closest relatives of the Stem Miner Weevil that you can see in Vancouver (family Curculionidae, True Weevils) are Black Vine Weevil (about 10%) and Strawberry Blossom Weevil (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Stem Miner Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Vancouver (10 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.
