Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Saddleback Scoliid Wasp sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

Of the 7 cities where we can rate Saddleback Scoliid Wasp sightings, Puebla ranks 3rd at about 10%. The best odds are in Quito (Ecuador, about 20%) and León (México, about 20%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Saddleback Scoliid Wasp is recorded against all the insects logged in Puebla (10 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.
