Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Blue-Tailed Cellophane Bee sighting in Santiago on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 154th most-seen of the 173 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.
December and January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Blue-Tailed Cellophane Bee in Santiago on a given day, against under 5% in February to November, the lowest months. Those are among Santiago's driest months, with about 10 mm of rain a month against 65 mm in June.
Only Santiago, in our data
Santiago is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Blue-Tailed Cellophane Bee sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Blue-Tailed Cellophane Bee is recorded against all the insects logged in Santiago (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.
