Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Thecla bathildis sighting in Medellín on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 129th most-seen of the 175 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.
April, July and December–February
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Thecla bathildis in Medellín on a given day, against under 5% in March, May–June and August–November, the lowest months.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Thecla bathildis sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 cities where we can rate Thecla bathildis sightings, Medellín ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in San Pedro Sula (Honduras, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Thecla bathildis is recorded against all the insects logged in Medellín (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.
