With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Large Tiphia sighting in Warsaw on a given day, based on 14 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 268th most-seen of the 580 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July to September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Large Tiphia in Warsaw on a given day, against under 5% in October to June, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Large Tiphia sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 3 cities where we can rate Large Tiphia sightings, Warsaw has the highest daily chance: about 10%. Next come Berlin (Germany, under 5%) and Hamburg (Germany, under 5%).
Same order: Hymenoptera
The closest relatives of the Large Tiphia that you can see in Warsaw (order Hymenoptera, Ants, Bees, Wasps, and Sawflies) are Common Carder Bumble Bee (about 40%), Hairy-Footed Flower Bee (about 30%) and Red-Tailed Bumble Bee (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Large Tiphia is recorded against all the insects logged in Warsaw (14 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.
