Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report an Arch Drab sighting in Kruger National Park on a given day, based on 15 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 290th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April–June and November
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report an Arch Drab in Kruger National Park on a given day, against under 5% in July–October and December–March, the lowest months. Those are among Kruger National Park's driest months, with about 25 mm of rain a month against 110 mm in February.
Between 7 and 10 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Arch Drab sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Arch Drab sightings, Kruger National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Addo Elephant National Park (South Africa, about 10%).
Same family: Nolidae
The closest relatives of the Arch Drab that you can see in Kruger National Park (family Nolidae, Tufted Moths) are Red Flag (about 10%), Cream Drab (about 10%) and Spiny Bollworm (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Arch Drab is recorded against all the insects logged in Kruger National Park (15 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.
