Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Nymula calyce sighting in São Paulo on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 502nd 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 Nymula calyce in São Paulo on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 1 and 4 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Nymula calyce sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 cities where we can rate Nymula calyce sightings, São Paulo ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in São Luís (Brazil, about 10%), Maceió (Brazil, about 10%) and Vitória (Brazil, about 10%).
Same family: Riodinidae
The closest relatives of the Nymula calyce that you can see in São Paulo (family Riodinidae, Metalmark Butterflies) are Lycisca Metalmark (about 10%) and Long-Tailed Metalmark (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Nymula calyce is recorded against all the insects logged in São Paulo (10 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.
