Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Spragueia magnifica sighting in Saguaro National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 248th most-seen of the 354 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
August and September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Spragueia magnifica in Saguaro National Park on a given day, against under 5% in October to July, the lowest months. Those are among Saguaro National Park's wettest months, with about 45 mm of rain a month against almost none in May.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Spragueia magnifica sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Saguaro National Park, in our data
Saguaro National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Spragueia magnifica sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Spragueia magnifica is recorded against all the insects logged in Saguaro National Park (7 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.
