Four new species of the genus Hermonassa from Pakistan (H. moorei sp. n., H. tathabaya sp. n. and H. ayubia sp. n.) and Nepal (H. kalamantra sp. n.) are described and compared with their relatives of the H. anthracina and H. dispila species groups. The specific status of Hermonassa shizukoae Sugi, 1995 is re-instated (stat. rev.). The species treatments are illustrated with 32 colour images and 24 genitalia figures.
