Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Maekistocera longipennis sighting in Miami on a given day, based on 29 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 282nd most-seen of the 826 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.
November and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Maekistocera longipennis in Miami on a given day, against under 5% in January to October, the lowest months. Those are among Miami's driest months, with about 60 mm of rain a month against 190 mm in June.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Maekistocera longipennis 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 Maekistocera longipennis sightings, Miami ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Fortaleza (Brazil, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Maekistocera longipennis is recorded against all the insects logged in Miami (29 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.
