Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Physonota ovalis sighting in Cumbres de Monterrey National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 344th most-seen of the 431 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.
August and December–January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Physonota ovalis in Cumbres de Monterrey National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February–July and September–November, the lowest months. Those are among Cumbres de Monterrey National Park's driest months, with about 45 mm of rain a month against 180 mm in September.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Physonota ovalis sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Cumbres de Monterrey National Park, in our data
Cumbres de Monterrey National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Physonota ovalis sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Physonota ovalis is recorded against all the insects logged in Cumbres de Monterrey National Park (6 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
