Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Triplasius lateralis sighting in Table Mountain National Park on a given day, based on 10 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 219th 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.

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 Triplasius lateralis sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Triplasius lateralis is recorded against all the insects logged in Table Mountain National Park (10 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.
