Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Poeciloblatta angusta sighting in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, based on 16 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 180th most-seen of the 344 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 a Poeciloblatta angusta in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, against under 5% in March to January, the lowest months. That is one of Table Mountain National Park's driest months, with about 15 mm of rain against 110 mm in June.
Between 10 am and 1 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Poeciloblatta angusta 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 Table Mountain National Park, in our data
Table Mountain National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Poeciloblatta angusta sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Poeciloblatta angusta is recorded against all the insects logged in Table Mountain National Park (16 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.
