Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Common Maquis Grasshopper sighting in Vienna on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 724th 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.
September and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Common Maquis Grasshopper in Vienna on a given day, against under 5% in November to August, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Common Maquis Grasshopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
13th of 13

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Common Maquis Grasshopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Vienna (15 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.
