Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Seriated Aethes sighting in Miami on a given day, based on 36 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 248th 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.

In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Seriated Aethes in Miami on a given day, against under 5% in May to March, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Seriated Aethes sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Yes
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Seriated Aethes sightings, Miami has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Austin (United States, under 5%) and Houston (United States, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Seriated Aethes is recorded against all the insects logged in Miami (36 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.
