With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Microcentrum marginatum sighting in Iguazú National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 226th most-seen of the 306 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August
In that month about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Microcentrum marginatum in Iguazú National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April, July, September and November–January, the lowest months.

Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Microcentrum marginatum 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 Iguazú National Park, in our data

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Microcentrum marginatum is recorded against all the insects logged in Iguazú National Park (7 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.
