With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Brazilian Lady sighting in Cordoba on a given day, based on 14 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 33rd most-seen of the 111 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
July
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Brazilian Lady in Cordoba on a given day, against under 5% in January–February, April–May and September, the lowest months. That is one of Cordoba's driest months, with about 10 mm of rain against 130 mm in February.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Brazilian Lady sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
8th of 10
Of the 10 cities where we can rate Brazilian Lady sightings, Cordoba ranks 8th at about 10%. The best odds are in La Paz (Bolivia, about 30%), Rosario (Argentina, about 30%) and Porto Alegre (Brazil, about 30%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Brazilian Lady is recorded against all the insects logged in Cordoba (14 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.
