It is the 53rd most-seen of the 83 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.

Only Quito, in our data
Quito is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Metcalfiella erectum sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Metcalfiella erectum is recorded against all the insects logged in Quito (9 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.
