Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Bronze-Winged Cryptocephaline sighting in Joshua Tree National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 164th most-seen of the 190 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, July and September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Bronze-Winged Cryptocephaline in Joshua Tree National Park on a given day, against under 5% in June, August and October–April, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Bronze-Winged Cryptocephaline sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 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 Bronze-Winged Cryptocephaline sightings, Joshua Tree National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (Mexico, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Bronze-Winged Cryptocephaline is recorded against all the insects logged in Joshua Tree National Park (6 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.
