Possible
About 30% of wildlife watchers report a Leptotes theonus sighting in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve on a given day, based on 37 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 12th most-seen of the 112 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 70%, and over a week to about 90%, if each day is a fresh chance.
January and June
In those months about 50% of wildlife watchers report a Leptotes theonus in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve on a given day, against under 5% in April–May and September–October, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Leptotes theonus sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Leptotes theonus sightings, Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve has the highest daily chance: about 30%. Next come Calakmul Biosphere Reserve (Mexico, about 10%) and Cumbres de Monterrey National Park (Mexico, under 5%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Leptotes theonus is recorded against all the insects logged in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (37 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.
