Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Uncertain Footman sighting in Garden Route National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 210th most-seen of the 298 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
March–April and October
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Uncertain Footman in Garden Route National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May–September and November–February, the lowest months.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Uncertain Footman 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.
Only Garden Route National Park, in our data
Garden Route National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Uncertain Footman sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Erebidae
The closest relatives of the Uncertain Footman that you can see in Garden Route National Park (family Erebidae, Underwing, Tiger, Tussock, and Allied Moths) are Creamstriped Owl (about 10%), Equine Maiden (about 10%) and Amata kuhlweini (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Uncertain Footman is recorded against all the insects logged in Garden Route National Park (7 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.
