Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Silverspotted Bladderhopper sighting in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, based on 22 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 138th 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 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
September and November–January
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Silverspotted Bladderhopper in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, against under 5% in February–August and October, the lowest months.
Between 8 and 11 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Silverspotted Bladderhopper sightings with a recorded time, and about 7 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
2nd of 2
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Silverspotted Bladderhopper sightings, Table Mountain National Park ranks 2nd at under 5%. The best odds are in Garden Route National Park (South Africa, about 10%).
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Silverspotted Bladderhopper is recorded against all the insects logged in Table Mountain 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.
