About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Naupactus glaucus sighting in Fortaleza on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 25th most-seen of the 112 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March
In that month about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Naupactus glaucus in Fortaleza on a given day, against under 5% in January and October–November, the lowest months. That is one of Fortaleza's wettest months, with about 220 mm of rain against almost none in September.
Only Fortaleza, in our data
Fortaleza is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Naupactus glaucus sightings: about 20% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Curculionidae
The closest relatives of the Naupactus glaucus that you can see in Fortaleza (family Curculionidae, True Weevils) are Plectrophoroides lutra (about 20%), Marshallius anacardi (about 10%) and Heilipus tuberculosus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Naupactus glaucus is recorded against all the insects logged in Fortaleza (16 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.
