With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Caribbean Scoliid Wasp sighting in Everglades National Park on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 255th most-seen of the 496 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.
February–March, October and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Caribbean Scoliid Wasp in Everglades National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January, April–September and November, the lowest months. Those are among Everglades National Park's driest months, with about 65 mm of rain a month against 240 mm in June.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Caribbean Scoliid Wasp sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Caribbean Scoliid Wasp sightings, Everglades National Park ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Big Cypress National Preserve (United States, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Caribbean Scoliid Wasp is recorded against all the insects logged in Everglades National Park (12 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.
