Possible
About 20% of wildlife watchers report a Glutophrissa epaphia sighting in uMkhuze Game Reserve on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 41st most-seen of the 59 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.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Glutophrissa epaphia sightings with a recorded time, and nearly all of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
Yes
Of the 2 parks where we can rate Glutophrissa epaphia sightings, uMkhuze Game Reserve has the highest daily chance: about 20%. Next come iSimangaliso Wetland Park (South Africa, about 10%).

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Glutophrissa epaphia is recorded against all the insects logged in uMkhuze Game Reserve (6 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.
