Eudonia angustea is a moth of the family Crambidae described by John Curtis in 1827. It is found in southern and western Europe, the Canary Islands, Madeira and Turkey. The wingspan is 17–22 mm (0.67–0.87 in). The forewings are narrow, whitish, mixed with brownish and sprinkled with black; base darker; lines whitish, dark-edged, first oblique, second sinuate; orbicular outlined with black; claviform black, touching first line; a black X-shaped discal mark, upper half filled with light brownish; subterminal line cloudy, whitish, hardly touching second. Hindwings are whitish-grey, terminally obscurely darker. The larva is blackish-grey, slightly greenish-tinged; spots darker or almost black; head pale brown; plate of 2 dark brown or almost black.
Adults are on wing from July to late autumn. The larvae feed on mosses on walls and in sand dunes. Wikipedia →

Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Narrow-Winged Grey sighting in Monfragüe National Park on a given day, based on 22 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 31st most-seen of the 84 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 40%, and over a week to about 70%, if each day is a fresh chance.
April and December
In those months about 30% of wildlife watchers report a Narrow-Winged Grey in Monfragüe National Park on a given day, against under 5% in January, March and June–November, the lowest months.
Between 9 pm and midnight
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Narrow-Winged Grey sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is seen both by day and at night.
Yes
Of the 6 parks where we can rate Narrow-Winged Grey sightings, Monfragüe National Park has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come Cévennes National Park (France, about 10%) and Doñana National Park (Spain, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Narrow-Winged Grey is recorded against all the insects logged in Monfragüe National Park (22 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.
