We report on a hierarchy of temperatures T_c < T_gap < T_met in superconducting Rb_1−x Fe_2−ySe₂ observed by THz spectroscopy. Above T_met = 90 K the material reveals semiconducting characteristics. Below T_met a coherent metallic THz response emerges. This metal-to-insulator-type, orbital selective transition is indicated by an isosbestic point in the temperature dependence of the optical conductivity and dielectric constant at THz-frequencies. At T_gap = 61 K a gap opens in the THz regime and then the superconducting transition occurs at T_c = 32 K. This sequence of temperatures seems to reflect a corresponding hierarchy of the electronic correlations in the different bands.
