In 3 days ~10% in a week ~30%
Chlorida festiva, the festive longicorn, is a species of beetle in the family Cerambycidae. It was described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of Systema Naturae. It is known from southeastern United States, Central America, South America, and the West Indies. Adult males produce (6E,8Z)-6,8-pentadecadienal, an attractant pheromone. In Puerto Rico the larvae are known to be leaf mining pests of mango crops. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Chlorida festiva sighting in Galápagos Islands on a given day, based on 11 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 54th most-seen of the 83 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, August and November–December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Chlorida festiva in Galápagos Islands on a given day, against under 5% in January, March–July and September–October, the lowest months.
Between 6 and 9 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Chlorida festiva sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Chlorida festiva sightings, Galápagos Islands ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Bastimentos Island National Marine Park (Panama, about 10%) and La Amistad International Park (Panama) (Panama, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Chlorida festiva is recorded against all the insects logged in Galápagos Islands (11 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.
