Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Brindled Green sighting in Vienna on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1286th most-seen of the 1406 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.
October
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Brindled Green in Vienna on a given day, against under 5% in November to September, the lowest months.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Brindled Green sightings, Vienna ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Liverpool (United Kingdom, about 10%) and London (United Kingdom, under 5%).
Same family: Noctuidae
The closest relatives of the Brindled Green that you can see in Vienna (family Noctuidae, Cutworm Moths and Allies) are Silver Υ (about 20%), Large Yellow Underwing (about 10%) and Cotton Bollworm Moth (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Brindled Green is recorded against all the insects logged in Vienna (5 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.
