Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Lepidoneiva erubescens 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.
December and January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Lepidoneiva erubescens in Tijuca National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February to November, the lowest months. Those are among Tijuca National Park's wettest months, with about 160 mm of rain a month against 40 mm in July.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Lepidoneiva erubescens sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Tijuca National Park, in our data
Tijuca National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Lepidoneiva erubescens sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Lepidoneiva erubescens 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.
