Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Gold-Dot Slender sighting in London on a given day, based on 8 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 1153rd most-seen of the 1504 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.
Any time of year
In every month with enough records, under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Gold-Dot Slender in London on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Between 6 and 9 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Gold-Dot Slender sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only London, in our data
London is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Gold-Dot Slender sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Gracillariidae
The closest relatives of the Gold-Dot Slender that you can see in London (family Gracillariidae, Leaf Blotch Miner Moths) are Horse-Chestnut Leafminer (about 20%), Firethorn Leafminer (about 10%) and London Midget (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Gold-Dot Slender is recorded against all the insects logged in London (8 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.
