Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Prionyx kirbii sighting in Vienna on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 760th 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.
July
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Prionyx kirbii in Vienna on a given day, against under 5% in August to June, the lowest months. That is one of Vienna's wettest months, with about 90 mm of rain against 40 mm in February.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Prionyx kirbii sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 5
Of the 5 cities where we can rate Prionyx kirbii sightings, Vienna ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Algiers (Algeria, about 10%), Cologne (Germany, under 5%) and Barcelona (Spain, under 5%).
Same family: Sphecidae
The closest relatives of the Prionyx kirbii that you can see in Vienna (family Sphecidae, Thread-waisted Wasps) are Yellow-Legged Mud-Dauber Wasp (about 10%), Mexican Grass-Carrying Wasp (about 10%) and Asian Mud-Dauber Wasp (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Prionyx kirbii 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.
