Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Small Grey sighting in Prague on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 647th 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.
August
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Small Grey in Prague on a given day, against under 5% in September to July, the lowest months. That is one of Prague's wettest months, with about 80 mm of rain against 30 mm in February.
Between 10 pm and 1 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Small Grey sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
18th of 18
Of the 18 cities where we can rate Small Grey sightings, Prague ranks 18th at under 5%. The best odds are in Liverpool (United Kingdom, about 20%), London (United Kingdom, about 10%) and Dublin (Ireland, about 10%).
Same family: Crambidae
The closest relatives of the Small Grey that you can see in Prague (family Crambidae, Crambid Snout Moths) are Box Tree Moth (about 10%), Straw-Barred Pearl (about 10%) and Barred Grass-Veneer (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Small Grey is recorded against all the insects logged in Prague (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.
