Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Pachyta armata sighting in Yosemite National Park on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 159th 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.
July and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Pachyta armata in Yosemite National Park on a given day, against under 5% in September to June, the lowest months. Those are among Yosemite National Park's driest months, with about 25 mm of rain a month against 220 mm in January.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Pachyta armata sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Pachyta armata sightings, Yosemite National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Olympic National Park (United States, about 10%).
Same family: Cerambycidae
The closest relatives of the Pachyta armata that you can see in Yosemite National Park (family Cerambycidae, Longhorn Beetles) are White-Spotted Sawyer (about 10%), Dimorphic Flower Longhorn Beetle (about 10%) and Monochamus obtusus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Pachyta armata is recorded against all the insects logged in Yosemite National Park (8 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.
