Anania stachydalis is a species of moth of the family Crambidae. It is found in Europe. The species closely resembles Anania coronata. The wingspan is 23–25 mm. The forewings are dark fuscous; lines hardly darker, first indistinct, second forming a very strong curve outwards above middle, and a deep abrupt sinuation inwards below it, preceded by a whitish -yellowish spot in the curve, and interruptedly edged posteriorly with whitish-yellowish on upper half; orbicular dot and linear discal mark darker, separated by a whitish-yellowish spot. Hindwings as forewings, but pale spots in disc larger and approximated; a pale costal spot before second line. The larva is green, incisions white; subdorsal line white; spiracular fine, whitish; spots green, whitish-ringed; head whitish.
The moth flies from May to August depending on the location. The larvae feed on Stachys. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Woundwort Pearl sighting in Bavarian Forest National Park on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 964th most-seen of the 1115 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
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Woundwort Pearl in Bavarian Forest National Park on a given day, against under 5% in August to June, the lowest months.
Between 10 pm and 1 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Woundwort Pearl sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
Yes
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Woundwort Pearl sightings, Bavarian Forest National Park has the highest daily chance: under 5%. Next come Pyrénées National Park (France, under 5%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Woundwort Pearl is recorded against all the insects logged in Bavarian Forest National Park (5 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.
