Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Aetalion reticulatum sighting in Rio de Janeiro on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 105th most-seen of the 169 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Aetalion reticulatum is recorded against all the insects logged in Rio de Janeiro (7 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.
