With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Dolichoderus rugosus sighting in Yasuní National Park on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 89th 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 50%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May–June and August
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Dolichoderus rugosus in Yasuní National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July and September–April, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Dolichoderus rugosus sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Among the best
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Dolichoderus rugosus sightings, Yasuní National Park ranks 2nd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Manu National Park (Peru, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Dolichoderus rugosus is recorded against all the insects logged in Yasuní National Park (9 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.
