Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Thecla angelia 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.
May to July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Thecla angelia in Everglades National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August to April, the lowest months. Those are among Everglades National Park's wettest months, with about 170 mm of rain a month against 40 mm in March.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Thecla angelia sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Thecla angelia sightings, Everglades National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge (United States, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Thecla angelia 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.
