With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Synoeca virginea sighting in Manu National Park on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 142nd most-seen of the 366 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and September–January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Synoeca virginea in Manu National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February–April and June–August, the lowest months.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Synoeca virginea 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 Manu National Park, in our data
Manu National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Synoeca virginea sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Vespidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Synoeca virginea is recorded against all the insects logged in Manu National Park (10 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.
