It is the 66th most-seen of the 173 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.

In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chilean Woolcarder in Santiago on a given day, against under 5% in May to September, the lowest months.
Only Santiago, in our data
Santiago is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Chilean Woolcarder sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Anthidium
The closest relatives of the Chilean Woolcarder that you can see in Santiago (genus Anthidium, Wool Carder Bees) are European Woolcarder Bee (about 20%) and Oblong Woolcarder Bee (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chilean Woolcarder is recorded against all the insects logged in Santiago (21 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.
