Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Hornet Rove-Beetle sighting in Kyiv on a given day, based on 6 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 655th most-seen of the 753 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.
July
In that month about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Hornet Rove-Beetle in Kyiv on a given day, against under 5% in August to June, the lowest months.

Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Hornet Rove-Beetle sightings with a recorded time, and about half of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is seen both by day and at night.
Only Kyiv, in our data
Kyiv is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Hornet Rove-Beetle sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Staphylinidae
The closest relatives of the Hornet Rove-Beetle that you can see in Kyiv (family Staphylinidae, Rove Beetles) are Obscure Carrion Beetle (about 20%), Black Snail Beetle (about 10%) and Ocypus nitens (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Hornet Rove-Beetle is recorded against all the insects logged in Kyiv (6 verified sightings), 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.
