Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Anthia cinctipennis sighting in Kruger National Park on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 656th most-seen of the 748 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.
February
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Anthia cinctipennis in Kruger National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March to January, the lowest months. That is one of Kruger National Park's wettest months, with about 110 mm of rain against almost none in August.
Between 5 and 8 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Anthia cinctipennis sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Anthia cinctipennis sightings, Kruger National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park (South Africa, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Anthia cinctipennis is recorded against all the insects logged in Kruger 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.
