With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Lamplight Actinote sighting in Guatemala City on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 68th most-seen of the 87 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January
In that month about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Lamplight Actinote in Guatemala City on a given day, against under 5% in February to November, the lowest months. That is one of Guatemala City's driest months, with about 5 mm of rain against 240 mm in September.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Lamplight Actinote sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Guatemala City, in our data

Same family: Nymphalidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lamplight Actinote is recorded against all the insects logged in Guatemala City (5 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.
