It is the 230th most-seen of the 1807 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.
May–June and September–October

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Redbud Seed Weevil is recorded against all the insects logged in Washington (142 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.
