With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Variegated Longhorned Beetle sighting in Shenandoah National Park on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 406th most-seen of the 723 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Variegated Longhorned Beetle in Shenandoah National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July and September–May, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Variegated Longhorned Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Shenandoah National Park, in our data
Shenandoah National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Variegated Longhorned Beetle sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Variegated Longhorned Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Shenandoah 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.
