Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Cerogenes auricoma sighting in Mexico City on a given day, based on 20 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 261st most-seen of the 557 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.
August
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cerogenes auricoma in Mexico City on a given day, against under 5% in September to July, the lowest months. That is one of Mexico City's wettest months, with about 150 mm of rain against 5 mm in December.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cerogenes auricoma sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Mexico City, in our data
Mexico City is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cerogenes auricoma sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same order: Hemiptera
The closest relatives of the Cerogenes auricoma that you can see in Mexico City (order Hemiptera, True Bugs, Hoppers, Aphids, and allies) are Mexican Treehopper (about 20%), Stenomacra marginella (about 20%) and Harlequin Bug (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cerogenes auricoma is recorded against all the insects logged in Mexico City (20 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.
