With luck
About 10% of wildlife watchers report a Striated Ant sighting in Egmont National Park on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026.

September to November
In those months about 20% of wildlife watchers report a Striated Ant in Egmont National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February to August, the lowest months.
Between 9 am and noon
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Striated Ant sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Among the best
Of the 3 parks where we can rate Striated Ant sightings, Egmont National Park ranks 3rd at about 10%, level with the leaders once rounded. The best odds are in Arthur's Pass National Park (New Zealand, about 10%) and Abel Tasman National Park (New Zealand, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Striated Ant is recorded against all the insects logged in Egmont National Park (5 verified sightings from 2019 to 2026), 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.
