Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Acmaeodera princeps sighting in San Antonio on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 625th most-seen of the 697 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 an Acmaeodera princeps in San Antonio on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Acmaeodera princeps sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only San Antonio, in our data
San Antonio is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Acmaeodera princeps sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Acmaeodera princeps is recorded against all the insects logged in San Antonio (5 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.
