Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Redbud Seed Weevil sighting in Philadelphia on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 376th most-seen of the 632 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Redbud Seed Weevil in Philadelphia on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Redbud Seed Weevil sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Redbud Seed Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Philadelphia (12 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.
