Setina roscida is a moth of the family Erebidae first described by Michael Denis and Ignaz Schiffermüller in 1775. It is found from western France through central Europe to the Volga area and the Altai. The wingspan is 19–24 mm for males and 14–20 mm for females. There are two generations per year with adults on wing from April to June and again from July to September.
The larvae feed on lichen. Larvae are found in late summer. The species overwinters in the larval stage. Pupation takes place in spring. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Setina roscida sighting in Prague on a given day, based on 12 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 505th most-seen of the 724 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 Setina roscida in Prague on a given day, so our monthly data shows no clear season.
Only Prague, in our data
Prague is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Setina roscida sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Setina roscida that you can see in Prague (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Jersey Tiger (about 10%), Burnet Companion (about 10%) and Spongy Moth (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Setina roscida is recorded against all the insects logged in Prague (12 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.
