Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Ctenucha rubriceps sighting in São Paulo on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 381st most-seen of the 832 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 a Ctenucha rubriceps in São Paulo 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 Ctenucha rubriceps sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ctenucha rubriceps is recorded against all the insects logged in São Paulo (15 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.
