Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Macraspis festiva sighting in Tijuca National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 95th 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.
January–February, May and August–October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Macraspis festiva in Tijuca National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March–April, June–July and November–December, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Macraspis festiva sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all 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 Macraspis festiva sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Macraspis festiva is recorded against all the insects logged in Tijuca 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.
