Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Green-Tailed Carpenter sighting in Quito on a given day, based on 84 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 10th most-seen of the 83 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 60%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and June–July
In those months about 40% of wildlife watchers report a Green-Tailed Carpenter in Quito on a given day, against about 10% in September and December, the lowest months.
Only Quito, in our data
Quito is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Green-Tailed Carpenter sightings: about 30% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Apidae
The closest relatives of the Green-Tailed Carpenter that you can see in Quito (family Apidae, Honey Bees, Bumble Bees, and Allies) are Bombus robustus (about 40%), Andean Black Longhorn (about 30%) and Gray-Backed Bumble Bee (about 20%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Green-Tailed Carpenter is recorded against all the insects logged in Quito (84 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.
