Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Cecidomyia avicenniae sighting in Everglades National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 315th 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–April and November–December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Cecidomyia avicenniae in Everglades National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January and May–October, the lowest months. Those are among Everglades National Park's driest months, with about 55 mm of rain a month against 240 mm in June.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Cecidomyia avicenniae sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Everglades National Park, in our data
Everglades National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Cecidomyia avicenniae sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Cecidomyiidae
The closest relatives of the Cecidomyia avicenniae that you can see in Everglades National Park (family Cecidomyiidae, Gall and Forest Midges) are Sea Grape Gall Midge (about 10%), Stephomyia eugeniae (about 10%) and Asphondylia borrichiae (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Cecidomyia avicenniae is recorded against all the insects logged in Everglades National Park (8 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.
