With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report an Ormetica maura sighting in Tapantí-Macizo de la Muerte National Park on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 57th most-seen of the 187 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 20%, and over a week to about 40%, if each day is a fresh chance.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ormetica maura is recorded against all the insects logged in Tapantí-Macizo de la Muerte National Park (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.
