What is the RAREST animal/plant you have ever seen

From this tool (see this thread), I found that I have two observations representing species that have been observed fewer than 10 times on the site.

One of those I have previously posted in this thread, but the other was unfamiliar to me. This Stout Stick Insect only has 6 other observations. According to this scientific article, the Genus (and species) was only described in 2005, and is ‘only known from a small part of the Eastern Cape’ - though most of the iNaturalist observations are from the Northern and Western Cape Provinces.
