Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Black-Banded Carpet sighting in Yosemite National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 174th most-seen of the 227 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.
May and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Black-Banded Carpet in Yosemite National Park on a given day, against under 5% in June–September and November–April, the lowest months. Those are among Yosemite National Park's driest months, with about 50 mm of rain a month against 220 mm in January.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Black-Banded Carpet sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Only Yosemite National Park, in our data
Yosemite National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Black-Banded Carpet sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Black-Banded Carpet is recorded against all the insects logged in Yosemite National Park (7 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.
