With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Zethus westwoodi sighting in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 50th most-seen of the 112 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
February and March
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Zethus westwoodi in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve on a given day, against under 5% in January and April–October, the lowest months. Those are among Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve's driest months, with about 20 mm of rain a month against 150 mm in June.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Zethus westwoodi sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve, in our data
Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Zethus westwoodi sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Zethus westwoodi is recorded against all the insects logged in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (12 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.
