Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Limnoporus notabilis sighting in Yellowstone National Park on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 127th most-seen of the 160 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.
June and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Limnoporus notabilis in Yellowstone National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July–September and November–May, the lowest months.
Between 2 and 5 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Limnoporus notabilis sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
5th of 5
Of the 5 parks where we can rate Limnoporus notabilis sightings, Yellowstone National Park ranks 5th at under 5%. The best odds are in Great Bear Rainforest (Canada, about 20%), Pacific Rim National Park Reserve (Canada, about 10%) and Rocky Mountain National Park (United States, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Limnoporus notabilis is recorded against all the insects logged in Yellowstone 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.
