Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Green Jewel Fly sighting in Guadalajara on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 177th most-seen of the 229 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.
March and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Green Jewel Fly in Guadalajara on a given day, against under 5% in April–October and December–February, the lowest months. Those are among Guadalajara's driest months, with about 10 mm of rain a month against 210 mm in July.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Green Jewel Fly sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
9th of 11
Of the 11 cities where we can rate Green Jewel Fly sightings, Guadalajara ranks 9th at under 5%. The best odds are in Salvador (Brazil, about 10%), Durban (South Africa, about 10%) and Brasilia (Brazil, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green Jewel Fly is recorded against all the insects logged in Guadalajara (6 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.
