In 3 days ~10%
Acrocercops albinatella is a moth of the family Gracillariidae, known from Quebec and the United States (including Maryland, New York, Maine, North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Ohio, Kentucky and Texas). Adults are on wing in late June and early July in central Illinois.
The hostplants for the species include Quercus alba, Quercus laevis, Quercus obtusiloba, Quercus rubra, and Quercus stellata. They mine the leaves of their host plant. The mine starts as a long, winding, Nepticulid-like mine ending in a large, tentiform mine on the underside of the leaf. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Acrocercops albinatella sighting in Toronto on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1296th most-seen of the 1689 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, if each day is a fresh chance.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Acrocercops albinatella in Toronto on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Toronto, in our data
Toronto is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Acrocercops albinatella sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Acrocercops albinatella is recorded against all the insects logged in Toronto (7 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.
