What are the chances of seeing a Sena simplex in Kruger National Park?

Rare

It is the 519th 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.

When is the best time to see a Sena simplex in Kruger National Park?

April

In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Sena simplex in Kruger National Park on a given day, against under 5% in May to March, the lowest months. That is one of Kruger National Park's driest months, with about 20 mm of rain against 110 mm in February.

What time of day is best to see a Sena simplex?

Between 7 and 10 pm

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Sena simplex sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is mostly seen at night.

Where else can you see a Sena simplex?

Only Kruger National Park, in our data

Kruger National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Sena simplex sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.

Where does the Sena simplex sighting chance come from?

GBIF citizen-science records

It is estimated from how often the Sena simplex is recorded against all the insects logged in Kruger 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.
