Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hair-Banded Broad-Nosed Weevil sighting in Boston on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 830th most-seen of the 1200 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hair-Banded Broad-Nosed Weevil in Boston on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hair-Banded Broad-Nosed Weevil sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hair-Banded Broad-Nosed Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Boston (8 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.
