Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Megachile pusilla 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.
January, March, May–June and September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Megachile pusilla in Galápagos Islands on a given day, against under 5% in February, April, July–August and October–December, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Megachile pusilla sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Galápagos Islands, in our data
Galápagos Islands is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Megachile pusilla sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Megachile pusilla 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.
