This study presents the documentation of four previously unreported Hesperiidae (Rhopalocera) species within the state of Uttar Pradesh, India. The species recorded include Tagiades litigiosa Möschler, 1878, Coladenia indrani (Moore, [1866]), Hyarotis adrastus (Stoll, [1780]), and Telicota colon (Fabricius, 1775), all of which were observed and photographed on 23.x.2023 within the confines of Pilibhit Tiger Reserve, Uttar Pradesh, India. The documentation of these species marks the first recorded specimens of their presence within this particular region, expanding the known biodiversity of Hesperiidae in Uttar Pradesh. With these additions, the total count of hesperiid species within the Rhopalocera list for Uttar Pradesh now stands at 31.
