With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Megacyllene acuta sighting in Buenos Aires on a given day, based on 65 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 151st most-seen of the 558 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.
February–May and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Megacyllene acuta in Buenos Aires on a given day, against under 5% in June–October and December–January, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Megacyllene acuta sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Buenos Aires, in our data
Buenos Aires is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Megacyllene acuta sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Megacyllene acuta is recorded against all the insects logged in Buenos Aires (65 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.
