Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Malachite Darner sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve, in our data
Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Malachite Darner sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Malachite Darner is recorded against all the insects logged in Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve (5 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.
