Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Glassy-Winged Skipper sighting in Tijuca National Park on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 118th most-seen of the 132 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.
March and June–July
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Glassy-Winged Skipper in Tijuca National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April–May and August–February, the lowest months.
Between noon and 3 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Glassy-Winged Skipper sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
6th of 6
Of the 6 parks where we can rate Glassy-Winged Skipper sightings, Tijuca National Park ranks 6th at under 5%. The best odds are in Ría Lagartos Biosphere Reserve (Mexico, about 40%), Iguazú National Park (Argentina, about 10%) and Serra dos Órgãos National Park (Brazil, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Glassy-Winged Skipper is recorded against all the insects logged in Tijuca National Park (5 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.
