Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-Faced Sprite sighting in Garden Route National Park on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 196th 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.
November and December
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Yellow-Faced Sprite in Garden Route National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January to October, the lowest months.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Yellow-Faced Sprite sightings with a recorded time, and about 8 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
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 Yellow-Faced Sprite sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same genus: Pseudagrion

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Yellow-Faced Sprite is recorded against all the insects logged in Garden Route National Park (10 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.
