Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Scopula internata sighting in Durban on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 345th most-seen of the 401 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 20%, if each day is a fresh chance.
May and October–November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Scopula internata in Durban on a given day, against under 5% in June–September and December–April, the lowest months.
Only Durban, in our data
Durban is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Scopula internata sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Scopula internata is recorded against all the insects logged in Durban (5 verified sightings), 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.
