Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Jubilee Fan-Foot sighting in Cévennes National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 730th most-seen of the 996 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.
June and July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Jubilee Fan-Foot in Cévennes National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August to May, the lowest months. Those are among Cévennes National Park's driest months, with about 60 mm of rain a month against 260 mm in October.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Jubilee Fan-Foot sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Jubilee Fan-Foot is recorded against all the insects logged in Cévennes National Park (8 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.
