With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Rhionaeschna marchali sighting in Bogota on a given day, based on 93 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 11th most-seen of the 101 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
December to February
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Rhionaeschna marchali in Bogota on a given day, against about 10% in March to November, the lowest months. Those are among Bogota's driest months, with about 75 mm of rain a month against 210 mm in April.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rhionaeschna marchali sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Rhionaeschna marchali sightings, Bogota ranks 2nd at about 10%. The best odds are in Quito (Ecuador, about 20%).
Same order: Odonata
The closest relatives of the Rhionaeschna marchali that you can see in Bogota (order Odonata, Dragonflies and Damselflies) are Mesamphiagrion laterale (about 10%) and Highland Meadowhawk (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rhionaeschna marchali is recorded against all the insects logged in Bogota (93 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.
