Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Ustjuzhania lineata sighting in Durban on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 310th 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.
January, April and September
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Ustjuzhania lineata in Durban on a given day, against under 5% in February–March, May–August and October–December, the lowest months.
Between 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Ustjuzhania lineata sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
Only Durban, in our data
Durban is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Ustjuzhania lineata sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Ustjuzhania lineata that you can see in Durban (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Lienard's Achaea (about 10%), African Peach Moth (about 10%) and Creamstriped Owl (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Ustjuzhania lineata is recorded against all the insects logged in Durban (6 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.
