Abstract
We report confirmed sightings of a lesser known hesperiid butterfly namely Hoary palmer Unkana ambasa (Moore, 1858) from Assam, India based on a first photographic evidence of an uncollected adult specimen from Nilachal (Kamakhya) hills, leading to the range extension of the species by approximately 222 km from its nearest previously known locality i.e., West Bengal, India. Prior to this communication, there was only a single photographic record of U. ambasa from the State based on an egg laid on the top of a leaf which was observed and documented by Paresh Churi on 15 April 2019 in Rani.
