Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Mallow Longhorn sighting in Kyiv on a given day, based on 9 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 591st 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 Mallow Longhorn in Kyiv on a given day, against under 5% in August to June, the lowest months.
Only Kyiv, in our data
Kyiv is the only city on Wallace's Line with enough records to rate Mallow Longhorn sightings: under 5% of wildlife watchers there report one on a given day.
Same family: Apidae

GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Mallow Longhorn is recorded against all the insects logged in Kyiv (9 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.
