50% of these 8 records were made in July. So far, records fall in only 4 of the twelve months.

This shows when 8 records were made, not when fireflies fly. A place people only visit in one season looks seasonal for that reason alone, so treat a thin month as “nobody looked” rather than “nothing there”.
