With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Canthon fulgidus sighting in Yasuní National Park on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 48th most-seen of the 203 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 30%, and over a week to about 60%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May, August–September and December
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Canthon fulgidus in Yasuní National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March–April, July and October, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Canthon fulgidus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Only Yasuní National Park, in our data
Yasuní National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Canthon fulgidus sightings: about 10% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Canthon fulgidus is recorded against all the insects logged in Yasuní National Park (16 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.
