The forewings are pale greyish ochreous, with a few black scales; veins sometimes marked with cloudy dark fuscous streaks; first discal stigma black, preceded by a similar dot obliquely above it, second white edged with dark fuscous; a dark fuscous spot between and above these; black terminal dots. Hindwings pale whitish-fuscous. The larva is yellowish-green; head black
Adults are on wing from August to the end of June. The larvae feed on various umbelliferous plants, including Daucus carota, Chaerophyllum temulum, Peucedanum palustre, Apium graveolens and Oenanthe crocata. The species overwinters as an adult. Wikipedia →

Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Coastal Flat-Body sighting in Wadden Sea National Park on a given day, based on 7 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data from 2019 to 2026. It is the 536th most-seen of the 818 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.
March, June and August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Coastal Flat-Body in Wadden Sea National Park on a given day, against under 5% in April–May, July and September–February, the lowest months.
Between 5 and 8 am
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Coastal Flat-Body sightings with a recorded time, and about 6 in 10 of them come between 6 pm and 6 am: it is most active around dawn and dusk.
Only Wadden Sea National Park, in our data
Wadden Sea National Park is the only park on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Coastal Flat-Body sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Coastal Flat-Body is recorded against all the insects logged in Wadden Sea National Park (7 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.
