Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Amber-Banded Clubskimmer sighting in San José on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 210th most-seen of the 239 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.
February, June, August and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Amber-Banded Clubskimmer in San José on a given day, against under 5% in March–May, July, September and November–January, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Amber-Banded Clubskimmer sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only San José, in our data
San José is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Amber-Banded Clubskimmer sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Libellulidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Amber-Banded Clubskimmer is recorded against all the insects logged in San José (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.
