Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Round-Necked Longhorn Beetle sighting in Shenandoah National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 571st most-seen of the 723 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and June
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Round-Necked Longhorn Beetle in Shenandoah National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July to April, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Round-Necked Longhorn Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
3rd of 3
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Round-Necked Longhorn Beetle sightings, Shenandoah National Park ranks 3rd at under 5%. The best odds are in Elk Island National Park (Canada, about 10%) and Great Smoky Mountains National Park (United States, about 10%).
Same family: Cerambycidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Round-Necked Longhorn Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Shenandoah National Park (6 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.
