Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Attagenus trifasciatus sighting in Pyrénées National Park on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026.

Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Attagenus trifasciatus sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
4th of 4
Of the 4 parks where we can rate Attagenus trifasciatus sightings, Pyrénées National Park ranks 4th at under 5%. The best odds are in Sierra Nevada National Park (Spain, about 20%), Cévennes National Park (France, about 10%) and Sierra de Guadarrama National Park (Spain, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Attagenus trifasciatus is recorded against all the insects logged in Pyrénées 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.
