With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Etorofus obliteratus sighting in Olympic National Park on a given day, based on 17 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 72nd most-seen of the 207 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.
March and July–August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Etorofus obliteratus in Olympic National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April–June and September–February, the lowest months. Those are among Olympic National Park's driest months, with about 100 mm of rain a month against 370 mm in November.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Etorofus obliteratus sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Etorofus obliteratus is recorded against all the insects logged in Olympic National Park (17 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.
