Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Leptomyrmex wiburdi sighting in Blue Mountains National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 554th most-seen of the 789 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January–April and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Leptomyrmex wiburdi in Blue Mountains National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May–September and November–December, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Leptomyrmex wiburdi sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Blue Mountains National Park, in our data
Blue Mountains National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Leptomyrmex wiburdi sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Leptomyrmex
The closest relatives of the Leptomyrmex wiburdi that you can see in Blue Mountains National Park (genus Leptomyrmex, Spider Ants) are Leptomyrmex nigriventris (about 20%), Red-Headed Spider Ant (about 20%) and Leptomyrmex cnemidatus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Leptomyrmex wiburdi is recorded against all the insects logged in Blue Mountains National Park (7 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
