Present study was carried out at Hingolgadh area,Jasdan, Gujaratduring October 2013 to December 2013to record the speciescomposition of butterflies. During this study a total of 15 species and 04families were reported.The reported families Nymphalidae covered 42.85 %,Papilionidae21.43 %, Danaidae 14.29 % and Pieridae21.43 % biodiversity of butterflies of the study area. In Nymphalidae included, JunoniaOrithya, Junoniaalmanac, Bybliailithyia, Hypolimnasbolina, Hypolimnasmisippusand Cynthia cardui. InPapilionidae included Pachlioptaaristolochiae,Papiliodemoliusand Papiliopolytes. In Pierinaeincluded Danauschrysip pusand Danausgenutia. In Pieridae includedCeporanerissa, Catopsiliacrocale and Colotisetrida. Species diversity index (H') was highest (1.12) in case of family Nymphalidae compared to other.It is suggest that butterfly species diversitygenerally increase with increase in vegetation and declines with the increase in disturbance.A detail study is required for further exploration of butterfly fauna of Jasdan, Rajkot, Saurashtra
